The Grain Millers Harvest Showdown is back in Yorkton this week. Yorkton Exhibition put on a scaled-back event last year due to restrictions, but they haven't been able to hold the full event since 2019.

There's no shortage of events for visitors to choose from this weekend, including the return of Professional Bull Riding at the event. General Manager Barb Woytas says the full schedule can be found on their website.

"We have a full slate of events starting Wednesday, November the 2nd with our school tours. We have a horsepower showcase which includes a chore team competition, mutton busting for the kids, and heavy horse pulls. We also have stock dog competitions, a ranch rodeo which is you know, your real working cowboys, as well as our commercial cattle show and sale."

Woytas said after a few years off, they're really happy to have the show back this year.

"Well, 2019 would have been the last full show. We did have harvest showdown last year, but of course, we were limited with the restrictions that were in place due to COVID, and in 2020 we weren't able to have a show at all. We're really excited to have a full show back again this year, and obviously, a show like this doesn't happen without the generous support of our sponsors and volunteers so we want to give a big shout-out to all of those as well."
