Area Information
- Location:
Located southeast of Swift Current just off Hwy 13 the small prairie community of Ponteix, with its distinct French culture, was founded by Father Albert Royer and named after his parish in France.
- The townsite was moved south of the creek when the Canadian Pacific Railway laid track south of the creek.
- Plesiosaur Statue: Near Ponteix was the site of a plesiosaur find in the early 1990s. In 1995 community members and students of Ponteix school contributed small articles to this plesiosaur statue before it was filled with cement and painted by the townspeople in a ceremony commemorating the discovery of the original plesiosaur's bones.
