Humboldt teacher looking to earn seat on city council
A long-time teacher in Humboldt is looking to earn a seat on city council in the upcoming municipal election.
Dave Rowe is originally from Weyburn and has been teaching in Humboldt since 1997. He recently set his sights on running for council.
“A couple of years ago I thought, ‘I’m getting toward the end of my teaching career and where would I got next,'” he said. “And one of the thoughts I had was to get involved with Humboldt city council.”

He’s coached hockey for a number of years, has been a baseball umpire for five years, and was also on the Humboldt Minor Hockey board. In 2012, Rowe also was a volunteer with the RBC Cup when it came to Humboldt, and he also helped at the wrestling venue at the 2002 Canada Winter Games. Rowe is also a football coach at Humboldt Collegiate Institute (HCI).
