Don't miss out on supporting ARSU ONE by purchasing your 2021-2022 Calendar!
When we set off to launch our fundraising calendar project, we wanted to tell a story, share some adventures, and to show you a little bit about what do. We also wanted to make this calendar stand out from the rest, by adding in some interesting fun facts each month that we call "Did you knows". Our belief is that we have put out more then just a calendar and that you will enjoy it as much as we have creating it (keep in mind this is a 24 month calendar).
By purchasing a calendar, you are helping us to help save lives, to educate and to lead by example in protecting the lakes, rivers and shorelines where we operate.
All proceeds go directly to our unit.
Thank you goes out to our many partners who support our efforts and who have agreed to promote the sales of this calendar through their business. We encourage you to visit these partners, all of who have shown their commitment to supporting our organization.

It's My Birthday on February 1-st
I, K9 Gusztav aka Portside’s Gusztav (aka Saskatchewan’s water rescue dog in training) turn 2 years old on Monday, the 1st of February and want to tell you that you are invited to my Birthday, but this year we have to do things a bit different, and follow the public health guidelines to help keep everyone healthy and safe, So, instead of you coming to my birthday party, how about we take the party to you. You can celebrate by ordering some great food from Tommy’s Speakeatery on February the 1stfrom 6 pm, and the first 25 orders for take-out or delivery will get a slice of my birthday cake!
Wondering what to get me for my birthday, well why not add a calendar to your order ($15 each), and it will be sent with your food, or just make a donation to ARSU1, and it will help in my training and for the team to purchase some life saving equipment.
Don’t forget to share your celebration with us on facebook or twitter.
If you are among the lucky people who can reserve a table at Tommy’s you’ll have a chance to see me (who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too). Special thanks to Tommy’s Speakeatery and Edina’s Special Cakes – we’re so happy that you are our partners).
Yours sincerely K9 Gusztav
