“We have welcomed guests from all over Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, North Dakota, Montana and various other places. We operate on weekends, spring through fall, weather permitting,” said Sheldon Driedger of the skydiving club. The Moose Jaw Municipal airport is slated for a major airport expansion, which includes lengthening the taxiway, and a complete rebuild of the runway. Construction is expected to start in June, and due to the pending construction, the airport will be shut down and the club will not be able to operate from that location. “We have secured operational space to operate and offer tandem skydiving at the Weyburn airport. We intend to operate on the weekends of May and June, starting May 9th, weather permitting,” said Driedger.
