Fort Dauphin is opening a door to the past to show off a slice of pioneer life.

Bring the family out from 11 am to 2 pm to check out demos of old methods of butter churning, bannock making, and crafting yarn dolls.

Museum assistant Kendall also informed us that there is a nationwide event also taking place to promote visiting historical sites.

"This is part of a Canada Heritage Days contest, where you can take a selfy with the correct hashtag and it could win you and the museum some money"

Posting a picture from the day with either #historicplacesday or #HPDcontest2023, you could be entered to win $1000 dollars for both yourself and the Fort Dajupbhin Museum.

Between the fresh butter and bannock, as well as the chance to support you local museum, Pioneer Day is sure to be a hit.
