The Village of Theodore was incorporated as a Village in 1907 - But before that it all began in:
1892 -When Richard Seeman from London England acquired a homestead just east of the present town site. In 1903 Mr. Seeman gave the North West Railway (now CPR) $80,000 to extend the rail line to Sheho, about 20 miles west. In turn Mr. Seeman acquired a generous amount of land and a spur line to his property. The rest, as that classic saying goes "Is History".
We have been around for over 100 years, and as we venture into our second century - Like any other small town community, we are making the effort to adapt to the ever changing world. Population figures have remained constant over the years 1950-1990 at around 500 people, and at present time have declined to around 345. Population figures have appeared to stabilize over recent years, and the influx from out of province residents moving in to settle here has been growing steadily. This page only gives you a small look at our storied past - Our recently re-opened Theodore Heritage Centre (Formerly the Theodore Museum) contains more of our memories and memorabilia!
We are also currently constructing a 'Mural Grove' Memorial Park that will feature more of our past featuring Murals of Theodore and area, and a number of families with their historical signage looking back at their history in the area! We hope to open our new park in the summer of 2025.
