Prairie Storms - Ogema Traditional Cache

Ogema is a town with a population of 320 located in south Central Saskatchewan, Canada. It is approximately 115 kilometres south of Saskatchewan's capital city, Regina. Ogema is located midway between Weyburn and Assiniboia on Highway 13.

Ogema is a heritage "hotspot". Ogema is quickly becoming a destination for tourists looking to experience the early 1900s and what early pioneers accomplished.

Deep South Pioneer Museum - The museum was first organized in 1977 by interested persons from Ogema, Pangman, Bengough, Avonlea and other districts. These individuals felt the need to preserve the history and heritage of the local community. Over the past 30 years, the museum has accumulated over 30 restored buildings and over 1000 pieces of farm equipment. An annual "Museum Day" is held during the second Sunday in July. This event offers blacksmith, threshing and rope making demonstrations as well as a parade and musical entertainment.

Historical Buildings - Ogema's Main Street is lined with buildings that represent Ogema's past. Some buildings include the Fire Hall and Fire Wall on either side of Main Street. These structures were built after the fire of 1915 that destroyed much of Ogema's Main Street to prevent any future fires from spreading. The Wall is of significant importance because it was considered a foolish investement by government officials and wouldn't last longer that a decade. Now, nearly 95 years later it is one of the only structures of its kind in Saskatchewan. Another building that can boast that same title is the British America Station. The "B.A." Station as it was referred to is one of the only remaining B.A. Stations left in Western Canada. Other buildings include Moffet and Robertson General Merchants, Andrew Fraser's Department Store, The Ogema Theatre and The Ogema Meat Market.

1912 CPR Train Station - Ogema's original train station stood at the South end of Main Street on the North side of the railway tracks. It was built in 1912, one year after the rail line arrived. After passenger use declined and the station closed down, and sold for scrap in the 1960s. In the early 2000s a committee was struck to oversee the return of a 1912 CPR train station to the original site. In 2002, a station was located and transported from Simpson, SK. The station has been fully restored and furnished with original furniture and artifacts. Tourists are also offered a passenger rail tour of the area.
