The City of Dauphin hosted their 125th birthday celebrations on Sunday afternoon in front of the Watson Art Centre and it was a great day full of celebration and cheer.
Mayor of Dauphin David Bosiak was joined by the public in singing O'Canada and a lot of fun was had by all. With that event in the books, Fort Dauphin Museum is now set to host their celebration as Dauphin turns 125 years old on Tuesday, July 11.
"We are thrilled to be able to host an event for the community," said Karly McCrady, Summer Co-ordinator at Fort Dauphin Museum. "I think it's great that we get the chance to all come together to have some fun and celebrate Dauphin."
Starting at 1 p.m. with Opening Ceremonies with local dignitaries from Northwest Metis Council and Treaty 2, the party will continue with a performance from D-Town Steppers and Bratsva. There will also be other live entertainment. There will also be a BBQ and there will also be wagon rides and outdoor games for the kids.
The party will run until 4 p.m. and as Karly says, everyone in the community is more than welcome to join in on the fun.
"Everyone should come on down to celebrate to really show that we are strong as a community," ended McCrady. "We're all here for the city that we live in and love."
