Redvers
Redvers is a town in southeastern Saskatchewan, Canada. It is the first town one passes through travelling west from Manitoba on the Red Coat Trail, once a thoroughfare of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and now modern Highway 13. A statue of a Mountie on a horse can be seen just west of the intersection of Highway 13 and Highway 8.
The town has a public school, hospital, two banks, a weekly newspaper (''The Optimist''), and other businesses and services. Redvers is home to the Redvers Rockets, a senior hockey team in the Big 6 Hockey League. Like most towns in the area, its economy is based on farming, oil drilling, and various services. Grain elevators are active along a Canadian Pacific Railway line paralleling the Redcoat trail.
==History==
The town was named after General Sir Redvers Buller in 1897. Buller was then fighting in the Second Boer War, and had earlier in his career commanded a company to quell the Red River Rebellion. The town was incorporated in 1904. Its centennial was celebrated on 30 July 2004.
