Dear Editor:
A big thank you to all those who attended our 3rd Annual Grain Millers Heritage Dinner at St. Mary’s Cultural Center with guest speakers Scott Shiels, Grain Millers’ Manager of Procurement, and Maggie Roberston, a YRHS student who produced and provided the premier screening of her DVD “Friends of the Yorkton Brick Mill”.   Two large railway murals provided by artist Dean Printz set the “railway theme” as the participants entered the cultural center. Educational displays, historic photos, and silent auction completed the fundraising evening. MC Dave Farrell added a little humor with his rendition of President Donald Trump making a visit to the dinner.
Thank you to all the business sponsors for their generous support, silent auction donors, Yorkton media and all the volunteers who contributed to the success of this Heritage Fundraising Dinner. It was another wonderful sold out event to celebrate Yorkton’s history.
