3 HISTORY OF MELFORT
Melfort was preceded by a small community known as Stoney Creek Settlement founded by Reginald Beatty, a Hudson’s Bay agent, who settled his family in the new North West. Beatty homesteaded for a short while in the area now known as Birch Hills and then relocated to Stoney Creek in 1884 to be nearer running water and a better hunting area. By 1892, there were a number of families and agriculture, business and schooling developed. Melfort’s present site was surveyed for the Canadian National Railway (CNR) in 1902. The CNR manager asked Mary (Campbell) Beatty to name the community. She proudly christened it “Melfort” in honour of her family estate and town in Argylshire, Scotland. In November of 1902, the first building was erected on Main Street and it was purchased within the year by the Clift Brothers who set up the Melfort Pioneer Store (the original building still stands and houses “Plus Stuff Junction”). Lured by the promise of rail access, other businesses soon followed. Melfort was officially incorporated as a village in 1903. That same year the first financial institution opened: The Bank of Hamilton. The rail line reached the community in 1904 and, by 1907, the population was sufficient to justify Melfort’s incorporation as a town. The federal government built a post office in 1913 and Melfort boomed. It became a city on September 2, 1980. Today Melfort boasts a population of nearly 6,500 people and it is a vibrant, thriving hub of Northeastern Saskatchewan.

The Melfort & District Museum began in 1973 as an agricultural museum featuring an extensive collection of farm machinery and equipment and has since evolved into much more. We have a Pioneer Village which replicates an early 1900s settlement. Amongst the buildings are an original log farmhouse with furnishings, a one-room country school, a working blacksmith shop, a working sawmill, a church, a post office, a grist mill and a barbershop and General Store. A highlight is the original real estate office of Reginald Beatty, settler of the first Stoney Creek settlement and founder of Melfort. We also have a Dr. Shadd office building, a fire hall, a Fairy Glen Co-op Garage, a huge Exhibit Hall, a Machinery Shed, and an All-Season Shop on the grounds. Our office and Gallery are located in a heritage building, the Power House built in 1912. We change our displays and exhibits constantly so that we chronicle the development of our community and surrounding areas. We want to showcase history for our residents as well as for tourists. Our archives contain many, many documents and photographs of our community and its peoples from early times to the present. We have a special section dedicated to Dr. A.S. Shadd, one of the first black doctors on the prairies and a huge part of the development of every aspect of Melfort’s History. Our museum is open year round. We have a number of annual events and programs as well as an active summer season when we provide guided tours. You can also check out our seasonal display at City Hall. Welcome! Come explore your history with us. We’re saving it here for you.

Welcome to
Spruce Haven Park
PARKS & PLAYGROUNDS
Spruce Haven Park was originally situated on land offered to the City of Melfort by R.A. Howes for future generations to use and appreciate. Aptly named after the large stand of spruce trees that surround the property, for many years it simply provided a refuge within the city where families could play, picnic and gather in the outdoors to appreciate the beauty of nature. The Spruce Haven Ball Park became part of the park in conjunction with the ’88 Summer Games. Later, a meditative labyrinth garden was added on the site. In 2016 the Spruce Haven Recreational Area Master Plan was developed with a vision to expand the park to create a multiuse outdoor recreation area. The goal was for the park to serve a broad section of our residents and at the same time provide an attraction that would bring people to our community from throughout the region. The City reserved surrounding land to create a 58-acre park and began construction of a skate park, soccer pitches, spray park and a fully accessible playground area and a community garden. Future development will include areas for other outdoor sports and eventually an indoor multiuse recreational facility.
