A shout out to all my lovely peeps from the rocking town of Yorkton, Sakatchewan where Tris Hussey, Erica Hargreave and I are living it up at the Yorkton Film Festival!!!!

So tonight’s party hotline:

5 pm Kickoff BBQ in beautiful downton Yorkton (sponsored by Yorkton Business Improvement District) . So hurry up and put on your jeans, t’s and cowboy boots, it starts shortly and yes I will likely be fashionably late and no, I am not sure where in downtown Yorkton, but just follow the sound of the hoot’in and holler’in. (PS You need a BBQ pass for this one)
7 pm Screening of 45 RPM at the Painted Hand Casino (no idea what it’s about, but I understand it is a feature length film and is free for all)
Post Screening Reception (hoping and guessing there will be drinks)
Stay tuned for post, post screening festivities in the comments (and feel free to post the fyi on events for this evening that you know about there)

Yorkton Film Festival Party Hotline

May 21, 2009 By Emme Leave a Comment

Morning Saskatchewan,

Bright-eyed and bushy tailed this AM (despite ugly rumors from Mr Hussey suggesting I was over imbibing – really people, who are you going to believe) and excited to be getting on the Yorkton Party Train (bus) in a few short hours.

At any rate, wanted to drop a quick note, mentioning that I am going to endeavor to publish the evenings parties here each day (hopefully before the evening – I should be up by then). I am guessing that like at the Banff Television Festival, there are a slew of parties that happen that are not in the ‘official festival schedule’, so I need your help, especially since I am a ‘Yorkton Vigin’. Know of a Yorkton Film Festival Party? Drop me a note on it with details here or on twitter and I will post it in my daily Yorkton Party Hotline Manifesto.

Prairie Horizon Kisses,

Emme xoxo
