In the early part of the twentieth century, the children of Tuxford had been attending the Fairwell School. Attempts had been made to start a school but they were not successful.
On September 3, 1909, the first school meeting was held and the Tuxford School District No. 2486 was formed with D.E. Macintyre as chair, E.J. Golden as secretary-treasurer and J.H. Storry, Alex Forrest and John B. Calver as trustees.
Property was bought in northwest of the village of Tuxford (SW5-19-26 W2) and a tender was awarded to George A. Sloan in October. Charles S. Stewart was hired as a teacher on December 28 and he began classes on January 3, 1910.
This school operated until 1921, when a two room brick building began operation. The wooden structure was moved to another area of the town and used as a residence.
In 1963, a new school constructed of cinder block came into use.
By 1974, only one classroom of younger children (grades 1 to 5) remained with the balance being bussed to Moose Jaw. Olive (Thomas) Wells, the last teacher, retired and the school was closed.

The Moose Jaw Monarchs Juvenile Hockey Club was organized in September 1944 on a non-profit basis. The sole idea for the formation was to help youngsters get a better chance in organized hockey. In 1944 they won the Juvenile Hockey Provincial title.
The executive management were W.A. (Bill) Slater, president; S. Woodrow, vice-president; M. Murray, secretary-treasurer; R. Munro, coach, and Gymie McMillan, manager.

The Maple Leaf Rural Telephone Company was incorporated on April 8,1910. It had a capital stock of $2600.00. There were 20 subscribers and 18 miles of line. President was A. Kepner, secretary-treasurer was James Knox. The first meeting was held May 7, 1910. In 1921 a motion was passed that it was agreeable to organize under the new Land Tax system. Maple Leaf Rural Telephone Company, along with three other rural telephone companies merged with Tuxford and their books were closed.

The Women's Christian Temperance Union (W.C.T.U.) was founded on the national level in 1883. It was the first interdenominational woman's organization in Canada and in the world. The Moose Jaw Union of the W.C.T.U. was organized in 1889. The Union is renowned for its campaign against liquor, but it has always been a service organization, and was one of the major movements in working towards the franchise for women. The W.C.T.U. members are dedicated to the Christian principle of responsibility for the welfare of mankind, and the sacredness of human life. The motto is "For God and Home and Every Land." The pledge is one of total abstinence from alcohol, tobacco and narcotics, believing they contribute to the desecration of the home and the demoralization of the individual. Provincial conventions met annually, Canadian conventions met biennially, and World conventions triennially. The children and youth organizations are Little White Ribboners for children under 7 years of age, Loyal Temperance Legion for children 7 to 14 years of age, and the Youth Temperance Council for young people over 14 years. Women active in the Moose Jaw W.C.T.U. included Mrs. A.E. Peacock, Mrs. W. H. Beamish, Miss F.M. Johnstone, Mrs. E. Green, Mrs. A. Johnson, Mrs. H.F. Lanks, Mrs. A. Bricker, Mrs. C. Kjarsgaard, Mrs. Amy Lancaster, Mrs. Mildred Steele.

In the spring of 1889 settlers of the Marlborough district resolved to petition the Lieutenant Governor for the erection of a new school district. Trustees elected were William Watson, John G. Beesley and Alex McPherson. The Marlborough School District #156 was five miles square, comprising 100 quarter sections of 160 acres each, was in the southeast part of township 18, range 27. It also included a row of quarter sections 5 miles long on the north side of township 17. This was done so the school could be located on a road exactly in the centre of the school district. The school was built on the road allowance, which was in the centre of the south side of C.P.R. section 15. John Dickinson, a carpenter from Moose Jaw was in charge of construction. Among those who gathered to help were William Watson, John G. Beesley, John D. Fraser, Donald McBean, Arthur Beesley and Ted Heath. The school was one room, 16 feet by 18 feet. A larger school was built in 1906, and a third school was built in 1927. The first teacher was Miss Mary Alexander of Moose Jaw. Her sister, Miss Wroxy Alexander took over about a month later. The first students were Annie, Bertha, Mabel and Johnny Beesley, David and Kelsey Watson, and Hector McPherson. Resident rate payers were William Watson, Angus Watson, Arthur L. Davies, Harry Heath, Arthur Beesley, Henry Checker, John D. Fraser, John G. Beesley, Donald McBean, Alex McPherson and John Winn. The school was closed from 1895 to 1903 due to lack of students. It operated continuously until 1942 when it again temporarily closed down. It re opened in 1945 and continued until its final closing in 1962. Unlike other schools, Marlborough never changed from the original location. When the school closed it was used for grain storage and then demolished after the school district held a reunion in 1983.

In their constitution adopted 11 January 1938, the "Saskatchewan Agricultural College Graduates Association" defined 4 objectives: "to promote the social interests of graduates of the College of Agriculture, University of Saskatchewan; to promote closer relationships among graduates and between the graduates and the College, including both faculty and students; to assist whenever possible in securing positions for graduates of the College; and to co-operate with the University Alumni Association in their efforts to promote the interests of the University as a whole." Membership was open to all graduates of the College, "regular or ad eundem, Degree or Associate," and to honorary members as recommended by the Executive and elected by the membership. By 1964 "College" had been deleted from the organizational title; and rather than assisting in securing positions, the objective became "to keep graduates informed of recent developments in the various Agricultural fields." Membership was open to graduates of the College or School of Agriculture, and was extended to anyone who had discontinued either a degree or diploma course after two years of study (without receiving a diploma) if their class had since graduated. Those taking Agricultural Science through the College of Graduate Studies were also eligible.

On 8 November 1915, "The Assiniboia Club of the University of Saskatchewan" was formed. Essentially a faculty-student discussion group, its initial stated purpose was the "study of foreign problems." Their constitution detailed the club's objectives more specifically: "to gain a more intimate knowledge of the various peoples settled in Western Canada," and to "make a thorough study of the factors which hinder the development of a true Canadian citizenship" with a view to the "betterment of general social conditions." The Assiniboia Club disbanded in 1917, "owing to the War having taken many of the club's most enthusiastic members, and those who might have become members."

The Association of Retired Faculty Members, University of Saskatchewan, was formed in June 1975. Its purpose was to fight for cost-of-living adjustments for faculty pensions, as had been given for the University of Regina, teachers, and civil servants. Additional areas of concern included pensions for widows, correction of penalties for early retirement, and the need to have a pension formula which guaranteed a minimum pension income.

Open to faculty, staff and students, the Tennis Club was strictly a recreational club. Faculty were allowed the privilege of exclusive use of one tennis court in exchange for higher membership dues. A "Play Committee" consisting of three faculty and three students was established, to arrange for matches and tournaments, and to organize court use. Initial membership fees were $3.00 for male members of faculty; $0.50 for associate members; and $1.50 for ladies, students playing all summer, or any member of the faculty absent for 3 months while on vacation. Although the Tennis Club executive eventually expanded to include a "Social Committee," by 1946 increased court maintenance costs and greatly increased student enrollments forced the Club to "formally dissolve itself with the request that the University make arrangements for the future care and maintenance of the courts and the regulation and supervision of tennis on the campus."

Talk of starting a Faculty Club at the University of Saskatchewan started in 1921, but a club was not established until 1927. The centre for the club was a reading room in the administration building; and the club's major purpose became sponsoring a series of lectures by faculty members. Until 1947 it was for males only with the exception of one open meeting per year. Slowly, over the years, the club was also opened to other than faculty members: in 1937, government researchers were allowed to join; as were 'senior administrative personnel' in 1959; and by 1962, a degree was no longer a requirement of membership. In 1962, the club moved into the dean of Agriculture's house (its current location). On 19 May 1962, it was decided not to sponsor any more papers. From that point onward the club began to concentrate on providing food and drink. By 1974, 'most administrative officers' were permitted to join. The faculty club became a restaurant and bar on campus that secretaries, janitors, and students could not join. [Hayden, p.219-220].

On 31 October 1960, the University of Saskatchewan Graduate Student Society wrote the Canadian Film Institute, seeking advice on establishing a film society. Their initiative was successful, and in February 1963, the Graduate Student Society changed its name to the "University of Saskatchewan Film Society." Membership was open; several members of faculty eventually served on the executive. During the 1960s and 1970s film series shown by the Society were well-attended, but by the mid-1980s membership had declined to the point that the Society no longer appeared feasible.

Tuxford was incorporated as a village on July 19, 1907. The SW quarter of Section 5 in Township 19, Range 26 was chosen as the best location for a townsite and railroad station. CPR officials named the town Tuxford, for George Stuart Tuxford whose untiring efforts with railway officials got the railroad routed through the Buffalo Lake wheat growing area. In 1905 an insurance and real estate office was set up on the townsite. Plans were under way for the construction of grain elevators and by fall 1905 the railroad was within a mile East of the townsite. The first overseer of the Village of Tuxford was D.E. MacIntyre. Secretary-treasurer of the Village Council from 1907-1912 was J.B. Calver.

Tuxford Lodge No.87, Independent Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) was instituted on January 9, 1912. Charter members were David Reekie, Roy T. Lowther, William D. Boyd, A.G. Kepner, J.H. Storry, John B. Calver, R.E. Spicer, Don Kilpatrick, John D. Fraser. The Lodge hall was built that same year. During its existence, 130 men joined the Lodge. The charter was surrendered to the Grand Lodge of Saskatchewan on November 28, 1939. At the same time the Lodge hall was sold to the Village of Tuxford.
