The Magrath History and Museum Association is pleased to take the opportunity to display the new Galt Canal trail markers during the Town of Magrath’s 125th year celebration. With financial support from Wawanesa Insurance we were able to add these signs to the amazing trail system.
All are invited to come for a stroll and view these irrigation trail markers, but we are also happy to provide an online opportunity for everyone to walk the trail of our history!
Click on the pictures below for the stories and histories behind each of the trail markers.
