Auctioneer Winston Bailey takes bids on the "Butterfly, In Memory of Sloane Bedore" tree, the last one to be sold, at the Family Place Festival of Trees auction and gala on Thursday evening in the City Centre Mall. The Butterfly tree won the people's choice award for favourite tree and also happened to be the tree that sold for the most, going for $2,700. Great Plains Ford purchased the tree and then donated it back to the Family Place. This was the 11th annual Festival of Trees and also acted as a wrap up to the Family Place's 15th anniversary celebrations. The festival was able to raise $40,000 which goes towards the various programs that the Family Place offers to Weyburn and area residents.Review photo 2891 – Chantelle Mehler
