Film Festival Results

The Sask Section hosted two screenings of the Best of the Banff Mountain Film Festival this year. Both were successful.

In January, the location was Saskatoon's TCU Place. According to the report discussed at the last Section meeting, attendance was nearly 800. Plans for the next Film Festival, probably next January, will be starting up soon.

At the end of April, the Regina people hosted another show. The venue there is much smaller, although it IS free! The theatre at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum was filled to capacity at just over 300. The same location will be used for next year's showing, although there is a search for a larger venue to meet the apparent growth in demand.

Good to hear that both events were successful and looking forward to next year's shows. Thanks to all the many volunteers and sponsors who, once again, made this event possible.
