After our changing of the gavel to our new Chairperson Doug Hull, he quickly got busy with Yorkton Business Improvement District work.
First order of business was our fourth installment of our support to the Yorkton Brick Mill.
The YBID had committed $25,000 dollars over five-years so $5,000/year and we made our fourth installment late in January 2021.
The YBIS met with Larry Pearen Board Member, and President of the Brick Mill committee Vern Brown, along with YBID Chairperson Doug Hull and YBID Executive Director Donna Brothwell at the Mill to present the $5000.00 for 2021.
If you wish to get involved with the Brick Mill please see their website. www.yorktonbrickmill.ca or Facebook page.
Also in the latest 'YBID Chats' they interviewed Board Member Larry Pearen to get more information on the project and its progression.
YBID Chats interviews are posted on the organization's Facebook page.

YBID also has partnered with the Yorkton Public Library and the City of Yorkton to sponsor 'Cozy up and Color' and 'Yorkton Art Walk' ).
Local Businesses can get involved by signing up with the YBID to host a local artists work.
The Yorkton Art Walk will take place in March after the Cozy up and Color is complete and the artwork is framed and ready to go.
Community Participants are encouraged to stop into the Local business hosting the Artwork and post themselves on their fb page and #yorktonartwalk for more traffic to the businesses participating and more social media attention.
More information to come on the Yorkton Art Walk as we determine how many Art works we have to display.
