The celebration moved to the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon where we enjoyed a delicious banquet and program. The grade 11 and 10 joined the group for a picture taking session in the museum. The rest of the evening included a powerpoint presentation, a coffee house and lively dance sets. At the end of the evening the students were all bussed from the WDM to the fireside that was hosted by the Boldt family in Osler.
