April 6, 2018 will be a day forever ingrained in minds across the globe.
The bus carrying the Broncos SJHL team, its coach and training staff, and broadcast members was involved in a serious collision on the way to a playoff game in Nipawin, 16 members passed away and 13 survived. Hearts were shaken to the core and the world came together and became Humboldt Strong. Words that will always remind us of that night,
