As part of our commitment to the community we have planned an entire year of 2005 Centennial Celebrations that will enable all people within Southern Alberta to preserve and promote the western heritage and values that make this province so great.
Guy Weadick was a famous cowboy who entertained in the popular Wild-West shows of the early 1900s. He was a man who celebrated the old west and exemplified the western values of handshake honesty, neighbourliness and entrepreneurship. His legacy began to shape our community in 1912 when he convinced four prominent Calgary businessmen and ranchers to back his great Stampede. Our intention is to help the people of southern Alberta celebrate our western heritage and values - just as Guy Weadick did almost 100 years ago. For more on Guy, visit History
