Annual

July 31-August 1, 2010

Join us for the hiss of steam and the chug of gasoline engines as the Yorkton Threshermen's Club demonstrate their pioneer skills. Each year these skilled people present a fantastic event, complete with ice cream making demonstrations, flour grinding, blacksmithing, and, of course, old-time grain harvesting machinery and techniques.

This year's special exhibit will feature "Seeding Throughout the Years" and a fun extra feature on Sesame Street.
