Welcome to Chestermere’s History

This page will be updated with more history stories  as we are able to consolidate and format these for the website and complete a number of interviews of local residents.  Meanwhile, if you are interested, the Chestermere history book ” Chestermere a Home for all Seasons” is for sale on our webpage.  It is hoped that here on this page we will be able to update this book with new stories, or possibly add to old stories which were incomplete.  Please contact us if you have any ideas for topics for this page.  Thank you.

“If you know the past of the place where you live, you care about it more. You recognize, it isn’t just mine, it isn’t just for now, there were others here before me who cared for the place, who improved it … and it puts in mind that there’s a future too.”

Harry Sanders, Historian –  Calgary Herald May 16 2014
