Show chair Dan Cugnet said: “We’re meeting every week. We’ve submitted things to the city and to the provincial government.” The Southeast Saskatchewan Oilman Award was announced on March 29, with Derrick Big Eagle, who is the president and CEO of Tomahawk Energy Services, selected for the honour. Big Eagle has enjoyed a lengthy career in the patch, as he has been the owner of such companies as Eagle II Trucking, Eagle Drilling and Cheveyo Energy. He was previously selected as the Saskatchewan Oilman of the Year in 2013. “I didn’t think anything would ever come around like that (an award),” said Big Eagle. “A person never shoots for anything like that, and I guess they must have liked progression.”
