To all of those people that were unable to attend the “Hearts for Youth” banquet and auction, you are definitely at a loss. Not only did the youth put on a delicious pork supper, but also the music was beautiful and the speakers full of heart.

Welcomed back this year was the Szakacs family with their musical styling. And they were unbelievable. Hats off to the Szakacs family.

Speaker Brian Hoffey, Executive Director of Weyburn Youth Center, opened everyone’s eyes with statistics, making us understand the importance of youth centers and the effect of media on our youth today.

Second speaker Mike Zorn the new Youth Director opened up himself to us all and let us see why being here is so important to him. “Welcome Mike,” we are glad to have you here.

After all of the entertainment there was a silent auction and a small live auction done by Ron McDougall. It was an exciting, yet educational night.

Remember to buy your tickets for the next one!
