Saskatchewan’s Premiere Running and Walking Event Now Has a New Name! - Today, the volunteer organizers of the Queen City Marathon officially announced a major multi-year partnership with Saskatchewan credit unions to be the title sponsor of Saskatchewan’s premiere running and walking event: the Queen City Marathon.

Representatives from Saskatchewan credit unions and the QCM announced the partnership and unveiled the new event name and logo at a press event held this morning at the City of Regina Sportsplex–Fieldhouse.
