History

Edgerton Day, in 1904, purchased 12 townships (276,480 acres) of the "Kentucky Blue Grass Region of the West", from the CPR for $750,000. The land included the present day sites of Daysland, Strome and Killam. Mr. Day was the first mayor of the Village of Daysland (1905) and the Town of Daysland (1907). Daysland’s major industry continues to be providing services to the progressive farmers of Flagstaff County.

Shopping

Daysland offers a variety of shops and services. In recent years, Daysland has become a shopping centre for communities adjoining neighborhoods within the Flagstaff County. We have one grocier, 2 convenience stores, a pharamacy and a variety of smaller retail developments located on the main street of the town.
Our main street also contains restaurants and other personal and business services. The town has a light industrial area, where many items and services not normally found in retail areas can be accessed.
