Welcome to Foremost
As the Mayor of the Village of Foremost, I would like to extend a welcome to our community on behalf of Village Council. This is a small but dynamic community with a wide variety of amenities. We are very proud of the recreational and cultural activities available here, and invite you to visit our village and see for yourself what we have to offer.
A broad range of businesses provide residents and visitors with services they would otherwise have to travel to larger centres for. Groceries, clothing, hardware, farm supplies and services are all available, as well as beauty salons, a fitness centre, banking services, a craft store and a post office. Accommodations and restaurants are also readily available.
Our community's economic base is farming, with many generations of families continuing to operate successful farming operations. This provides for a steady population in our area.
Foremost is a very family-oriented community with an award winning school, which caters to Kindergarten to Grade 12 students. Foremost School has been the recipient of the Overall Excellence Award for non-selective schools, an award presented by The Fraser Institute. The Village offers hockey, figure skating, curling, swimming, exercise classes, the Wayside Campground and community groups for young and old. The yearly rodeo and Spring and Fall theatrical productions are looked forward to by everyone. The Village of Foremost is in close proximity to such major parks as Writing-on-Stone, Forty Mile Park, Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park, and the Red Rock Coulee Natural Area.
If you are passing through or making our community your home, I welcome you and trust that you will enjoy your time with us.
Yours truly,
Ken Kultgen, Mayor
Village of Foremost
