Sask Ag Hall of Fame 2020 Induction Postponed

Like many events, COVID-19 resulted in the postponement of the 2020 Saskatchewan Agricultural Hall of Fame induction ceremony.
 
Chairman Reed Andrew says the event was to be held on Saturday, April 18th.
 
“We haven’t chosen another date, I guess we’re waiting to see how this all plays out. You know, it may be in the summer, it may be in the fall. It's just a matter of when. This gives us the option to do those things right now we’re legislated not to do them, and we choose not to expose people anyway. So, it's sad, it's the softest induction but it will happen.”
 
This year's inductees include Adele Buettner, John Feige, Jack Hay, Eileen and William Lamont, the Honourable Gerry Ritz and Ted Serhienko.
 
The inductees' portraits will hang in the Agricultural Hall of Fame at Saskatoon's Western Development Museum.
