After more than three decades in the news industry, Global Regina station manager Mitch Bozak has retired.
Bozak started his career selling for both Rawlco Radio and Harvard Broadcasting before he joined the STV (now Global Regina) family in June of 1987.
During his 30-year career, a few things stand out.
“Even 30 years ago, it was quite an accomplishment to being a part of getting a brand new TV station up and running and on the air in a short period of time. It was very rewarding and I also felt the same reward when we launched our Morning Show in 2011 as it was a new product for us that took a lot of work but everyone worked together to get it done.” Bozak recalled.
Bozak has lent a hand to many charities causes over the past three decades. He coached minor hockey for 18 years, soccer for seven years and he served on the University of Regina Alumni Association.
When asked what his first plans were for retirement, Bozak said he can’t wait to attend the Leafs home opener this season.
Spending more time with his family and having time to do some fishing and golfing are also some things near and dear to his heart. But retirement isn’t all easy.

“By all means, the toughest thing is the people you have to leave,” Bozak said Thursday.
“I’ve enjoyed this ride the whole time.”
Bozak will be replaced by Michael Fulmes as the new station manager at Global Regina.
