Mar 4, 2014

Twenty-five projects preserving our province’s heritage will share in $258,000 through Saskatchewan Heritage Foundation grants.  Projects were chosen based on restoring heritage assets and promoting heritage conservation and range from $40,000 to revitalize the Melfort Post Office to $1,000 to restore the chimney of the CN Station in Eatonia Heritage Park. “Heritage Week reminds us that Saskatchewan has a diverse and exciting history,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Kevin Doherty said.  “Our government recognizes that while the future of Saskatchewan is bright, it is important to remember our past.
