PROVINCE ANNOUNCES TOP FIVE FOR BEST SUMMER JOB EVER

Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport is pleased to announce the top five candidates still in the running for the Saskatchewanderer - the best summer job ever.

The top five, chosen by the public through online voting, in alphabetical order by last name are: Jordyn Allan, Anna-Lilja Dawson, Aimee McDowell, Devan Seltenrich and Jeff Stock.

"All five of these young people are great ambassadors for Saskatchewan," Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Bill Hutchinson said. "They are enthusiastic about our province, and they are ready to tell the story of the new Saskatchewan - a Saskatchewan that more and more people are visiting and moving to every day."

The ministry will conduct job interviews with the top five candidates over the next few weeks and announce the 2012 Saskatchewanderer by the end of April.

The Saskatchewanderer will then travel around the province and blog about all the things that make Saskatchewan special. Last year's Saskatchewanderer travelled more than 12,000 km and saw communities all across the province. People can still view Andrew Konoff's blog at www.saskatchewanderer.ca if they want to reminisce.

Once again Bennett Dunlop Ford and CAA Saskatchewan are proud sponsors of the Saskatchewanderer.
