The Grist Mill Heritage Club and Millar Group Heritage Enterprises hosted The Penticton Chamber Theatre  at The Keremeos Grist Mill and Gardens over the weekend of August 11 and 12.

Admission was by donation and about 120 locals and visitors took in the special presentation. Proceeds were shared  between the players and the Grist Mill Heritage Club.

The company of 24 actors and their audiences found the flowing creek, lawns and gardens a delightful site for a play.

The performance wrapped up the Penticton Chamber Theatre tour of the South Okanagan and Similkameen. The cast and crew enjoyed a meal after the show at the Branding Iron Steakhouse in Keremeos.

 

The next special event at The Grist Mill will be a quilt show on Sunday, September 16.  For information contact 250-499-2888.
