História administrativa
In May 1977 a public meeting was held for those interested in forming a Tuxford community organization. Many were interested in compiling a history of the Tuxford area. That was the beginning of the Tuxford Heritage Group. Many people came forward to volunteer their time and efforts to the project.
At the Heritage Group’s first meeting they decided “to record the history of the Tuxford community, the book to be hard covered, of standard size and well-illustrated with local pictures, to cover the Village of Tuxford and the former school districts of Blofield, Buffalo Lake, Clinton, Fairwell, South Lake, and Westlake.” Committees were formed in each school district and letters were sent to as many family contacts as could be located, asking them to submit histories of their families, as well as human interest stories and photographs. They also asked permission to present all the original manuscripts submitted to the Moose Jaw Public Library Archives Department when the book was completed. The local media provided information on the project and public meetings were held to obtain material and stimulate further interest. Some of the committee members included Olive Wells, Vera Astleford, Clara Puddell, Elsie M. Hobday.
The book covers the period of time from 1857 to 1977. The book was published by the Tuxford Heritage Committee in 1979. It was printed by Friesen Printers, Altona, Manitoba. Financial assistance was provided by “New Horizons”, a federal government program to assist senior citizens in projects of their choice.
