On April 11, the Honourable Gene Makowsky, Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport, recognized the Dream Brokers Program during Introductions in the Legislative Assembly Spring Session.    “The Dream Brokers program presents opportunities for children and youth to develop physical literacy and engage in sustained participation in sport, culture and recreation activities,” said Minister Makowsky.

The Dream Brokers program celebrated the many people and partners that have contributed to its success since 2006 at the Saskatchewan Science Centre. Nearly 40 Dream Brokers participants had fun paying thanks to the sponsorship of Saskatchewan Lotteries.
