Weyburn at a Glance
On the Souris River, 115 km (71.46 mi) southeast of Regina, lies
Weyburn, often regarded as “The Opportunity City.” This nickname ties into its
booming economic bases of agriculture, manufacturing and processing, oilfield
exploration, business and industrial services. Famous Weyburn residents are the
former Saskatchewan premier/CCF politcal party leader T.C. Douglas and author
W.O. Mitchell. A fun way to learn more about these men and the city's attractions
is to take the Weyburn
Crocus Tour, a 12 stop driving tour that highlights various city attractions
such as the T.C.
Douglas Centre and the Turner
Curling Museum. Free guide booklets for the tour are availabe at the Soo
Line Historical Museum. For history buffs, the Heritage
Village and The
Big Wheel mural depict the area's colourful past. Recreational facilities
include the
Weyburn Leisure Centre, which has both an indoor pool and outdoor pool, while
scenic trails through the Nickle
Lake Regional Park are lined with trees. Visitors to Weyburn can choose to
stay in an assortment of motels, hotels and campgrounds and diverse dining opportunities
await.
