At a time when many people are self isolating themselves, or in quarantine, the community of Shaunavon has stepped up and provided help where help was needed.

The Shaunavon Co Op Marketplace Food Store is the only grocery store in the town and the Store Manager, Sharlen Thoreson, reached out to the community for help in stocking shelves during this time when they are exceptionally busy.

Thoreson said that they have  hired five temporary staff for an indefinite period of time to help stock shelves.

She added that the extra help also really boosts the staff morale in the store.

Thoreson said that their stock is arriving regularly.
