Just where the heck IS Regina, Saskatchewan, anyway? Can I get there from here?

Regina (which is also known as the Queen City and is pronounced...well, just the way you think would be the most embarrassing way to pronounce it) is the capital of the province of Saskatchewan, located in the western prairies of Canada, between the provinces of Alberta to the west and Manitoba to the east. Regina is a city of 215,000 people (metro area)…and just about as many Canadian Geese, depending on whom you ask.

If you’re looking at a map of Canada and the northern USA, we’re the province just above Montana and North Dakota that looks like a badly drawn rectangle. As we like to say: “Saskatchewan: easy to draw…hard to spell.” 

Regina is the home of the CFL's Saskatchewan Roughriders (go green and white!). It is also the home of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (go...um...er...red serge?). Every RCMP member is trained right here in Regina, so for those tourists who think it would be be pretty cool to to meet a "mountie", Regina is the place to be. Unless of course, you are speeding on the highway. Then it's not so fun to meet a mountie. And it's rather expensive, too.

Regina is also home to one of the largest and most beautiful urban parks in North America: Wascana Centre. This 930-hectare (2,000 acre) park in the heart of city is a magnet for outdoor activities of all kinds, in all seasons.

Wascana Centre also hosts the start and finish point for the Credit Union Queen City Marathon.

Regina is located on the TransCanada Highway (Highway #1) if you are travelling from the east or west, and Highway #6 if you are coming north from the United States border. 

Air Canada, WestJet, United and Delta are some of the airlines flying into Regina International Airport.

Does the Credit Union QCM have a host hotel?

You bet. We're proud to have the Radisson Plaza Hotel Saskatchewan as our host hotel.
