About
Step back in time and join us on a guided historical cemetery walking tour. As you explore the City of Yorkton Cemetery, you’ll discover the captivating stories of the legacies that shaped our community. Picture the early days of the York Colony, homesteaders carving out a life on the prairies, building settlements from scratch. Randy Goulden will share their moments of prosperity and struggles, creative solutions, and the moments that define our magnificent community and country. Before the York Colony became their final destination, recount snippets of these individual’s lives, their adventures, origins, and personal journeys. Don’t miss this chance to connect with history and honour our influential community members!
