A large enthusiast crowd joined the Yorkton Community Adult Band under the direction of Larry Pearen and Community Concert Choir under the direction of Laurene Jemieff for their fall concert at St. Andrew's United Church "SALUTE TO OUR VETERANS". During the two hour program, many WWI & WWII selections were performed including "White Cliffs of Dover", "One Tin Soldier", "Long Way To Tipperary" as well as the Royal Canadian Armed Forces marches featuring several soloists. The highlight of the afternoon concert was the mass performance of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" which featured band, choir and a color Party by the Royal Canadian Legion. A PowerPoint slide production showing many World War I & II photos was shown in the background during the musical performance. The large crowd gave the musicians three standing ovations. It was a proud moment to salute our veterans as we look forward to the community Remembrance Day Service Nov. 11th 10:30 a.m. Gallagher Center Flexi-Hall.
