Saskatchewan hosts more than 600 events every year like Rodeos, multi-cultural festivals, jazz festivals, fishing derbies, summer exhibitions, pow-wows, art & craft sales and much more. Saskatchewan has recorded the most intensive rainfall in Canadian history. Throughout Saskatchewan, the winter of 1973-1974 was characterized by near record snowfall and few periods when the temperature exceeded the melting point. The community of Green Lake on the Beaver River was heavily affected, though the beavers managed to save their dams.
