The Western Development Museum has had a long history itself within our province. The roots go back to the 1940's when people were concerned that farm machinery and the pioneer story were being lost. In 1945, the provincial government charged the MInister of Natural Resources and Industrial Development with collecting artifacts. In 1949, royal assent was given to the creation of the Western Development Museum.
Boom Town is the mainstay of the Saskatoon branch. But there's been so many more permanent displays open since. Then there's the exhibitions that are brought in for a couple of months at a time. With all the activities and demonstrations,its incredible that the WDM runs mainly on volunteer power!
And lets not forget the reported hauntings at the curatiorial centre! More intrigue!
Outside is a lovely picnic area. That's where you'll find a small cache. Enjoy your time!
On certain occasions there would be an entry fee to the museum grounds such as for PioneEra in July come join the festivities of course and find the cache at the same time
This has been placed for SCAR2016. Please wait until after 5:30 pm of Friday May 27 to find this cache.
