Mennon, Saskatchewan

Mennon, Saskatchewan

Mennon, Saskatchewan, is a small town of four houses in mid-northern Saskatchewan. It is about 30 minutes away from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. At one time the town was much larger than Saskatoon, however, it dropped in population when the railroad pulled out to go to other settlements.

The town is now a shadow of what it once was consisting of four houses and a small, one-room schoolhouse. The schoolhouse is allegedly haunted by former members of the town and residents over the years have reported strange sightings there.

The town post office opened on September 1, 1915, closing on March 31, 1969.[1]
