Mennon, Saskatchewan

Mennon, Saskatchewan, is a community in mid-southern Saskatchewan. It is approximately 42 km (26 mi) away from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. At one time the community was much larger than Saskatoon, however, it dropped in population when the railroad pulled out to go to other settlements.

The community 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 Mennon and residents over the years have reported strange sightings there.

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