Area Information
Location: Kenaston is located on between Danielson Provincial Park and Blackstrap Provincial Park.
The settlement was first known as Bonnington Springs in the District of Assiniboia in the Northwest Territories but usually referred to as "Bonnington". In late 1905, when Saskatchewan became a province, the name was changed to "Kenaston", honoring F.E. Kenaston, who was the Vice President of the Saskatchewan Valley Land Company. The Saskatchewan Valley Land Company purchased 839,000 acres (3,400 km2) of land from the railway for $1.53 an acre and another 250,000 acres (1,000 km2) from the Dominion Government for $1.00 an acre.
