About
Flin Flon is going through a renaissance. New is around the corner but we want to remember our vibrant past. The Flin Flon Arts Council, Pine Root Mural Festival and City of Flin Flon are delighted to unveil our newest Mural as a kickoff for CULTURE DAYS.
Milt Young was a longtime resident of Flin Flon who at 21 years of age built Milt's Sweet Shop.
Generations of kids enjoyed chocolate malts, homespun taffy and his famous honey glazed donuts.
