Looking for something to do this weekend?? Take a scenic drive and head out to Willow Bunch.
Willow Bunch, established in 1870, is one of Saskatchewan’s oldest settlements. The town is located on highway 36 south of the Trans Canada highway, forty minutes from the Canada-U.S. boundary near the Big Muddy Badlands in Southern Saskatchewan.
Willow Bunch is celebrating their 140 Birthday this weekend. Here’s my interview with Sharleine Eger…..Willow Bunch 140 year Celebration this Sunday
