Calendar Development
Success Stories
In 2006, Benchmark Press
teamed up with SaskEnergy, KidSport™ Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Roughriders
to produce the 2006-07 Saskatchewan Roughriders Commemorative Charity Calendar
and the 2007 Saskatchewan Roughriders Charity Calendar.
The 2006-07 Saskatchewan
Roughriders Commemorative Charity Calendar went on-sale in Saskatchewan on
June 30, 2006 and nearly sold all 1,000 copies within one month. Meanwhile,
5,000 copies of the 2007 Saskatchewan Roughriders Charity Calendar hit store
shelves in September, and it is expected to sell out within a few months.
Both of
the calendars will raise funds for KidSport™ Saskatchewan and Football Saskatchewan
to help children in need participate in community sport programs. To date,
the 2006-07 Saskatchewan Roughriders Commemorative Charity Calendar has generated
$40,000 for KidSport™ Saskatchewan and Football Saskatchewan.
