Northwest Territorial Days parade celebrates milestones
Battlefords residents are invited to attend the 130th anniversary of a local tradition, and the country’s 150th birthday.
The Northwest Territorial Days exhibition launches with the parade Tuesday night.
“It’s our 130th annual parade. We’ve been around for a long time,” Jocelyn Ritchie said, general manager of Battlefords Agricultural Society.
Ritchie estimated roughly 40 floats, and a number of antique vehicles will participate in the parade. Entries include the North Battleford City Kinsmen band and Indigenous singers and drummers.
