Purchased from Camp Shilo this incredible piece of history was brought to Minnedosa in 1970, and now sits off Main Street, behind the Cenotaph. Some restoration work includes sandblasting, repainting and the addition of the 12th Manitoba Dragoon decal. It has been sealed shut to help prevent injuries.
