A colourful, vibrant event took place during the evening of Thursday, Sept. 27. “A Collision of Art and Fashion,” was hosted by It’s Time Fashion & Gifts of Neepawa and Inspire Studio of Fine Art of Minnedosa. The Minnedosa Beach Pavillion provided the venue. Overlooking the picturesque Minnedosa Lake, this is an absolute gem of a location for which the town should be proud.

The Neepawa Yellowhead Centre (YHC) has a new president, elected by acclamation at their 7:00 p.m. AGM meeting on Monday, Oct. 15. After four years, Darian Major is stepping down from the president’s seat after the end of his term to welcome a fresh face, Brian McCannell, to the position. Typically presidency ends after three years, but Major stayed on, with the board’s approval, for an additional year to smooth out a transitional period.

The show goes on
