Welcome to the CYM Winnipeg 60th Anniversary Blog

Welcome to the CYM Winnipeg 60th Anniversary Blog!

The weekend of October 9-11, 2009 promises to be an exciting few days here in Winnipeg. There will be plenty of ways to celebrate our first 60 years and reminisce about your days in CYM- past, present, and (for many of you starting families) hopefully the future! Our celebrations include a wine and cheese reception, a possible golfing day, a gala banquet, and a nostalgic visit to Ukrainian Park, where we have spent many a summer and made countless life-long friends. You'll want to reserve your tickets early to ensure your participation. This is not to be missed!
