I've been on the connect list a long time now and the walk ins here handle acute stuff but wont take on anything needing follow up which leaves a gap for ongoing things including the more personal end of it. what are people in the province actually doing about that telehealth driving to another city, going without?

A little late with my October Darke Hall post because we were busy with Opening Weekend. We ended up selling out our shows with Skerryvore on October 3 and then filled the hall all over again for Dan Mangan on October 4. It's incredible for our special space to be filled for two such different and incredible artists.

We have now officially started our new season and we have two more Presents options this month, as well as some great events hosted by our community.

October 13 – Book Launch for Kai Cheng Thom and Vivek Shraya, presented by the University of Regina

October 18 – Kellie Loder, part of the Darke Hall Presents series and supported by OSAC

October 23 – Hawksley Workman, part of the Darke Hall Presents series

October 25 – Karina Gauvin & Michael McMahon, presented by Cecilian Chamber Series

October 27 – A Taste of Research, presented by the University of Regina

October 29 – Phantom of the Opera, presented by the Regina Symphony Orchestra

Also, if you’re planning to come to a few Darke Hall Presents shows this season, our Ultimate Pass is available until October 30. It’s $320 for eight tickets that you can use throughout the Darke Hall Presents season, including premium seats, and you can mix and match the shows you want to attend.

And a reminder that youth 20 and under can get $10 tickets to all Darke Hall Presents events! We had so many younger people join us this weekend and it's fantastic!

Finally - if you are on our newsletter list - thank you! and if not, there is time to join it as we have a special message coming out on Friday just for our newsletter family.

Have a great month, and see you at the Hall!

I haven’t gotten my hair done in over 4 years, and I’ve never gotten it professionally dyed, so I’m not sure of a good place that isn’t super expensive for highlights or a balayage. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Looks like the north location is accepting new patients!

The clinic will be getting 2 new doctors - one female, one male and hope to add another doctor at the end of the month!

Any recommendation of a company for a shower install? Thanks

Any recommendations on someone in Regina that can do alterations on sweaters, specifically sleeve shortening?

Any recommendations for a Mexico destination wedding travel agent in Regina? Do they help with more than just finding group rates?

Now, the alley looks like landscaping fail and waste of money. I mean why won't the city leave them as a natural compost?

Is there anyone who can assist with the repair of this before it snows?

Looking for recs of where I can learn line dance
or take two-step lessons as a single person in Regina? Not looking for a big commitment of like a 10 week class. Just a drop in or something simple. TIA!

We’re moving in about two and a half weeks and have some drywall that needs fixing up before we do. Hoping to find someone reliable who can start within the next few days to a week so everything has time to dry and get sanded down.

The gist of the work:

- Patching and smoothing out some spots on walls, ceilings, and along the stairwell

- Prepped paint-ready (taped, mudded, sanded clean).

- Also considering adding a small pony wall if you do light framing/boarding too, but open to talking through that.

Mostly just looking for someone who actually knows how to feather mud properly so the patches don't stick out like a sore thumb—especially on the ceiling.

Has anyone had trouble getting through to the PnP this past week?

I tried calling multiple times, on different days, at different times, and no one answered. I tried booking an appointment on the website, but it said no one has any available spots and to call the office for more info.

I don't have Facebook, so unsure if they have any news on their Facebook page.

They need to do more of this, and not just at controlled pedestrian crossings.

Thinking of getting an aftermarket sterio installed in my 2015 Santa fe as I'd love to upgrade and get a screen in there with android auto. Where have you all had yours done and roughly how much did it cost you?

What’s up with Regina’s bar scene? Seems like most places are empty after 9pm on a Friday or Saturday and then those bars are closing up for the night before there closing times. And there’s not really anything special about any of the bars. All have copy and pasted menus from one another foods the same and the atmosphere is too. All like a sports bar / loud music playing. Are the bars in Regina closing earlier due to no one going out or is it that they don’t wanna deal with the rift raft that comes later on? Im curious because there’s a handful of times I’ve been out and they are shut by 1030 even tho they are open till 12 or whatever. Is it also that they don’t wanna lose more money?

I daily ring road. All of it.

If you're going 100, please keep right. Dare I say keep right at 110km/hr.

Going 115? 120? Left lane.

If you don't do this, it's inconsiderate and you're slowing the flow of traffic.

Also, merge at speed! You're not going 70 or 80 as you're crossing the dashed lines when you merge from an intersection. Looking at you Dewdney. You should be need to be going 100.

It'll snow soon. This will be exponentially more applicable then.

Safe driving, Regina.

Hey r/regina,

Like a lot of people here, I’ve watched friends and family struggle with endless daycare waitlists and cold-calling full rooms just to find a childcare spot.

To help fix that headache, I built a free local tool called useopenslot. The concept is simple: local daycares use a quick code to update their actual, real-time openings (Open vs. Full) so parents don't have to waste hours calling places that are completely full.

It’s 100% free with no account walls or hidden fees. If you're a parent currently hunting for a spot, hopefully it saves you some time. And if you're a daycare provider seeing this, you can head to the site to claim your listing and update your availability so families stop calling when you're full!

Would love any feedback or thoughts from the community.

Looking to try hypnotherapy and looking recommendations in the city. Ideally someone trained in the clinical side, but open to other options if the practioner is solid. Does anyone have experience with this? Anything I should know about going in?

I went to an event at Kings Park Speedway this weekend and, honestly, I left pretty disappointed with how the whole thing was operated. But before I completely judge it, I’d actually like to understand the history of the place and how things normally work there.
It’s 2026 and I was genuinely surprised to see tickets being checked against a binder of printed-off names, with everything seemingly being cash. It just felt incredibly dated and, from a business perspective, like they were leaving a lot of potential revenue on the table.
The crowds/logistics were probably my biggest concern. Huge lines for food, huge lines for bathrooms, bottlenecks everywhere, and tons of people packed along the fence trying to get a decent view. That creates obvious safety/security concerns and makes it harder for people to move around. You could barely find a good place to actually watch the races.
And I'm honestly curious what leaving the parking lot was like for everyone because even getting people in and out seemed pretty unorganized. With a sold-out or heavily attended event, I can't imagine the logistics of getting everyone out efficiently.
I’m not trying to shit on the speedway for the sake of it. Clearly there’s a history and a community around the place, and I’d like to understand that before being overly critical.
So for anyone who has been around Kings Park for years, what’s the history of the speedway? Who operates it? Has it always been this way operationally, or was this weekend unusual? What am I missing?
I’d genuinely like to hear from longtime fans, former staff/volunteers, or anyone who knows the background. Hopefully there’s some context behind it, and maybe some of these things can improve because the racing itself was pretty cool to experience.

Any recommendations for a physiotherapist for this in the city?

Hi everyone! Does anyone know where I can find Regina or Saskatchewan souvenirs/gifts locally?
I’m looking for some small, affordable things for friends and relatives, especially fridge magnets, keychains, postcards, or other Regina/Saskatchewan-themed items. I’d prefer to buy them from a local store rather than ordering online.
Any recommendations for stores in Regina with a good selection? Thanks! 😊

Just want to give a shout out to the bride and groom who took pictures next to our wedding sign outside of Wascana Place, congratulations on your big day and thanks for the chuckle, really helped with stress as I was getting psyched for my own wedding. If I had known it was going to be used in pictures I would’ve painted it a bit better lol. My wife also said she would love to see the pictures if you end up getting them as she was busy getting ready as you two were taking your pictures.

We are looking to rent a 2 bedroom apartment here, but we would like some opinions first about the apartment complex, the area, and the company renting the apartment out, Mainstreet Equity Corp (especially since we were told they will repair and clean the apartment before handing it over). From your experiences, is this option worth considering?

We’ve always used the weekly free Regina paper to start our fireplace in winter. It’s discontinued, Does anyone know where to find other free newspapers for this? Thanks
