“Distinctive Destina­tions: Experience Historic Places”

Heritage Day, proclaimed annually in February throughout the nation by The National Trust for Canada, celebrates the architectural heritage and historic places of Canada. The WDM, City of Yorkton Archives, Municipal Heritage Sub-Committee, and members of the Yorkton Chapter of the Saskatchewan Genealogy Society are pleased to again work together to celebrate the event on Sunday, February 14 from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm.

For 2016, The National Trust for Canada has chosen the theme of Distinctive Destinations: Exper­ience Historic Places. Our country is rich in heritage, both within its landmarks and through the events which have shaped our past.  Guest speakers and displays will highlight various venues and happenings that have contributed to Yorkton’s own distinctive history.

  In addition, members of the Yorkton Chapter of the Saskatchewan Genealogy Society will be in attendance to share information on tracing family histories and answer questions relating to genealogical research.

Regular Museum admission applies. Everyone is welcome to celebrate Heritage Day at the Western Development Museum.
