Roy Rogers and Trigger. Not every piece of history is on record. Margaret Morrissette of Old Rivers Western Productions Ltd. wonders if Rogers was ever in the Battleford area? We are asking our more mature readers if they have any information. Morrissette says, “We know he was at Danceland in Watrous in the early 1940s.” If you have information, email us at newsoptimist.news@sasktel.net. Photo submitted
