Yorkton is Riderville!

Yorkton is Riderville!

May 3rd to 8th, we saw Yorkton go green. And when we say “go green”, we’re not talking about saving the planet, we’re talking literally! Store windows were painted, cars were decaled, the City of Yorkton even painted Roughrider logo’s on the streets!

Why? Because Yorkton is Riderville!

And here at McKenzie’s, we’ve got that Rider Pride. We know our customer’s love the Rider’s as much as we do, and we love to make our customer’s happy. We’ve given away an autographed John Chick jersey to Terry Milan, of Yorkton, back in November, and in March we gave a pair of Roughrider season tickets to Brian and Barb Decker, of Spy Hill.

This past Saturday we spent the morning gearing up for the “Rider Paride”. We decked out our green 06 King Ranch with enough balloons to carry away our Sales Manager, Jamie. The whole city was out and about cruising Broadway, checking out the floats, green shirts, green hair, green dogs and horses in tow! We were smack dab in the middle of it all, cheering away!

Check out some pictures of the parade, not even the weather could slow us down.

Community involvement is a big thing for us. We have a lot of plans for the future, so stay tuned and we’ll be sure to keep you on the up and up of all of Yorkton’s community events! We’ll be at the Yorkton Regional High School’s “Show ‘N’ Shine”, May 27th, as well as the Country Fair parade, July 10th. We hope to see you there!

Hey! I'm Hailey. I'm a crazy RoughRiders fan and I've been watching the Penguins since I was 5 (sounds like overcompensating to hide the banwagon jumping) and I have an afinity to bands that start with "THE" like The Beatles, The Killers, The Rolling Stones... etc.
