I like checking this site once in a while to see who has commented about Binscarth and who is writing about their memories there. I left Binscarth in 1969, so there are a lot of new names that i am not familiar with. I lived there for 17 years and had a lot a great friends and memories. I was a shit disturber in school from about grade 8 to grade 10. I did not realize that those would be some of the best days of my life, and to those teachers whom i made life miserable, i apologize. You may know some of my former school buddies. They were Jeff Tanner, Cliff (Speed)Spencer, Rick Neville, Bob Hamilton,and Donnie Fleury. I don't think any of them live in Binscarth any more.

Is there anyone in Binscarth who can help me to do some genealogy searches on all Metis families from the former community of Ste Madeleine. I've hit a few brickwalls on the marriages of the R.M. of Ellice. Trouble is that I don't know if they were married in Ste. Madeleine or at St. Lazare. I am mainly doing the ancestral lineage from about 1930 and working my way backwards to the first ancestors known.

Couldn't resist posting a "hi" as I haven't connected with Binscarth for close to 30 years. YIKES!  Many of you will remember my grandpa, Arthur Parr.  Scared to think of my school friends whose names I can hardly remember.  Feel free to email me and test my memory.

Hi Binscarthians, I was just researching Binscarth one day and I found the website. I was in the Vagabond Theatres's Production of the Wizard of Oz and I just want to say that Binscarth is the best town ever, I've never actually been to every town but I still think Binscarth is AWESOME! Good Luck to any Future actors in a Vagabond Production... and here is some advice: Jamie says she is scary, she's not scary (just know your lines and music and know where to go and when and you will be OK). Hope to come to Binscarth in the near future (I'm actually coming tomorrow! ha) But BYE

Just a shout out to whomever reads the guest comments!  Binscarth is the best place to raise a family and if youre looking for a great place to live filled with caring and loving people then the right place to pick would definatly 100% be Binscarth.  IF you have kids then theyres a HUGE outdoor pool you can realax in with 2 diving boards and 2 slides.  The school goes from Kindergarten to Grade Eight, there's 3 churches, a skating rink, curling rink, playground/park, 3 great restaurants, a hairdressers, a hall, grocery store, nursery school, firehall, library, and a bank.  IT is by far the best place on earth.
Love to all and all who know my family (The Boucher's) remember all the good times and the bad, remember all the fun that we had, dont dwell on death but celebrate the births.  Never foreget our dear Valerie Boucher (who was in face my grandmother and very close) she was such a great person who loved to dance.  Love to all.  Best wishes for the future!

I am very happy to have grown up in Binscarth.  Thinking back to the days of stocking shelves at Robinson's Store always makes me happy.  It was a great place to grow up and still is.  At the time, of course, I couldn't wait to leave but now that I have gotten older (10 year high school reunion this summer!...ouch!) there is nothing that I like better than going home.  Unfortunately I don't get to Binscarth as often as I would like but when I do I try and take full advantage. 

I really hope that people appreciate all the hard work that goes into all the Dinner Theatres/Musicals and other productions that I miss so much.  If anyone reading this is not attending, I highly recommend that you do.  I live in a city of 65,000 and we have nothing like it and any productions that do arise don't have near the quality performers (our drummers...haha) that Binscarth and surrounding area does.

I hope people shop at the local businesses and use them for all they are worth.  Sure you might save two whole dollars driving to Russell or Yorkton but then you will be in Russell or Yorkton and not beautiful Binscarth, and has anyone been to Yorkton lately?..Yikes!  Besides if you don't support the local businesses they will close then when you need milk or beer you will have to drive to Russell and spend five dollars on gas for a two dollar jug of milk.  Support them now and save yourself three bucks!....you'll be making money!

So thank you to all the people keeping Binscarth going.  I'm sure you are not all appreciated as much as you should be.  I hope to get home this summer as I have to attend the for mentioned reunion so I hope to see everyone on the golf course and then at the 580.  And if you are nice I will give you a look at the most beautiful baby on the planet, my new little girl Ava.  It's true, just ask grandma Val!

Didn't know Binscarth had a Website!  Great!
My family (father's side) is from Binscarth.  My grandmother and aunts still live there.  My Aunt Kate ran the restaurant at the Hotel!  I went to school there back in 1970 and spent a few years back then learning the joys of childhood!  Binscarth always has a special place for me.  I remember Christmas Caroling with my Cousin Georgette and some friendly people let us come into their home and sing along with their piano and have cola.  Back then, having a cola was a special treat.  I still remember DY's!!  Too bad both he and his little restaurant is no longer there.  I am currently doing some research on my father's side of the family and have come to a road block.  Some information I have is:
My Grandmother is Eva Fleury Her sisters are Mary & Della Eva was married to Joseph Hiliare Fleury Mary was married to his brother, John I'm looking for Joseph's ancestry. If anyone has any inkling I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you!
Thanks Binscarthonians!  No matter where your Children go, they always come home...

It's been almost a year since I was last in Binscarth and it seems like a lifetime.
A lot has changed since I first left 4 decades ago. Binscarth was my home for almost 10 years and there are times when I miss the place and those with whom I grew up, most of whom are now scattered across the nation. Perhaps I'll go "home" this summer just for old times sake.

It is so nice to check into our little community on such a well put-together site. It brings back good memories of the homestead. We are all so fortunate to be brought up in such a special place as Binscarth. I think that up-to-date current events and more pictures would draw much more interest to the page.

It's been a long time folks. I ran into Bob Murdock who told me of this site. Looks Great! Surfing through the Guest Book I found a few names I recognized, but like I said, it's been a while. Left Binscarth in September 1961 and have been back once or twice since and have thought a lot about the place and people I knew over the years. Would like to hear from any of you who may still recognize the name.  By the way, anyone know where Grant Fraser might be or can be contacted?

Comments: John and Katherine LIVINGSTON, and daughter Annie lived in Binscarth in 1902. Other children of John and Katherine were: John (b ca 1862), Duncan, Katie and Elizabeth...and possibly a Stewart. John (Sr) was born in Scotland. Katherine and all the children were born in Canada. They lived in North Carolina in 1880, but the parents and younger children apparently moved back to Canada - to Binscarth. Sons John and Duncan lived in Fremont, Nebraska ca 1890s onward - John Jr worked for the Fremont, Elkhorn & Mo. Valley RR.
Would love to know if anyone knows anything of this family. Thank you. I love this website.

Comments: I have been doing family tree research & according to my step-grandfathers military records he was born in Biscarth in 1895;( although Millwood is also given as his birthplace )- did both these towns have hospitals then? Family name was WONDRASEK , his parents emigrated from Bohemia 1887, and I am wondering if there are any WONDRASEK's still in the area. Manitoba Culture, Heritage and Tourism was kind enough to send me a packet of info on Manitoba along with a map and I would love to know how a family from Bohemia ended up in this small town of Western Canada. Cheers from the Florida Keys, "bj'

As well, did you know Rural Images publishes the Manitoba 4-H Banner, the provincial 4-H magazine, right here in Binscarth? And... that Binscarth has the largest 4-H Club in the province? A Coincidence? Perhaps - but I'd like to think Binscarth always does things in a big way!

Comments: My name is Kenn Hunter. I am one of Morton and Doreen Orr's Grandchildren (Cheryl's oldest son). From the time that I was a very young child until I graduated from high school I came to Binscarth to visit my grandparents twice a year. I am now 28 and I have not been back since high school.
Visiting the Binscarth web site has been a stroll down memory lane (especially the section that descibes the park and pool). I can remember spending many wonderful hours there. Another special memory that I have of Binscarth is all of the time that I spent riding snowmobiles on my uncle Harry (Buchett's) farm.
I have many fond memories of Binscarth. Even though I have not been there in ten years, as I have surfed this site today I am once again in touch with a strong feeling of connection to this town.
One characteristic of Binscarth that really stands out in my mind as being exceptional is that the people in the community are very warm and friendly.  The community seems to be very close knit, yet it is still very accepting of "outsiders". It is my experience that this is a very unique and special quality.
I don't know who reads this, but if you know any of my relatives (Morten and Doreen Orr - Harry, Valerie, Curtis,and Veronica Buchett) please tell them that I send my love and that I wish them the very best. Cheers,
Kenn Hunter
