Members of the Saskatchewan Dragoons before leaving July 10th
It's a time to celebrate but that celebration will be short lived for people of Northern Saskatchewan.
Thanks to rain and the efforts of firefighters, the majority of those evacuated because of forest fires are now being allowed to go home.
The Mayor of La Ronge has announced that the evacuation notice has been lifted for the largest area impacted by the fires.
Officials with the province are saying most of the wildfires are now under control, allowing the majority of the 13,000 evacuees to go home this weekend.
