SASKATOON Community heroes stand out in small villages like Bradwell, located east of Saskatoon with roughly 160 residents. The community centre is the heart of the village where fundraisers, birthday parties and other village events all take place. Adele Yanke is the president of the Community Centre and has worked hard to ensure its continued success. “The money that she has raised just to keep our community centre operating has been in the thousands and thousands of dollars,” said Bradwell resident Hank Ukrainetz. “There is no one more passionate in this community, than keeping this community together than Adele,” said Ukrainetz.
