Monday was not a happy Thanksgiving for those involved with Minnedosa Tourism.
Investigators are looking into a Monday morning fire that destroyed a Thanksgiving display set up by the organization to encourage people to take photos.
Minnedosa Fire Crews were called to Tanner's Crossing Park at around 9:25 am Monday morning to find the display and picnic tables all on fire.
The fire was put out before it could spread to nearby trees and potentially to nearby homes.
The display was set up just last Friday by volunteers and tourism board members, with hopes that families could use the display as a background for photos that Minnedosa Tourism asked to be shared to their Facebook page.
The fire is believed to have been deliberately set, and Minnedosa Fire Department has asked that anyone who has information on the fire to contact the Minnedosa RCMP at 204-867-2916, or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
