Brandon, MB. – For the second consecutive year, the Provincial Exhibition and Your Prairie Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and
Ram Retailers across the province are recognizing the amazing work of healthcare professionals throughout the Prairie
Mountain Health region by sending several hundred to the 2023 Royal Manitoba Winter Fair as a thank you for their
commitment to our community.
During the recent covid-19 pandemic, healthcare workers in Manitoba – like their counterparts throughout the country and
around the world have continued to deliver health services in the most difficult of circumstances. They have managed to
set aside their own fears and fatigue, working long and challenging hours in hospitals, personal care homes, vaccine
clinics and more.
Thanks to the generous support of Your Prairie Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram Retailers, close to five hundred healthcare
workers from across Prairie Mountain Health will receive complimentary tickets to the annual fair, which will be held
from March 27th to April 1st in Brandon’s Keystone Centre. As well, the Provincial Exhibition has dubbed Friday, March
31st as “Front Line Workers Day” at the Fair.
“We figure it’s the least we could do for the people who do so much for us. It’s our way of saying ‘thanks, we see you and
appreciate you,” says Kevin Schumacher, President, of PRCDAA.
“We’re grateful that our healthcare workers show up and work hard for our loved ones and continue to be pillars of our
communities even when they hit rough terrain.” Schumacher went on to say.
Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba General Manager Mark Humphries is grateful for the Ram Retailers support.
“These past few years have been tough on many Manitobans, but our healthcare workers were front and center in that
fight,” says Humphries. “Thanks to our friends at Prairie Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram, hundreds of healthcare workers
and their families will have a chance to enjoy the sights and sounds of the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair.”
“It’s an excellent opportunity for us to recognize their hard work and dedication,” Humphries added.
In addition to saluting western Manitoba’s healthcare workers, Your Prairie Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram Retailers will
again serve as the Presenting sponsor of the annual Horse Dog Relay, scheduled for Wednesday, March 29th in Westoba
Place.
