Detailed description is Delisle is a town in south central Saskatchewan, Canada. It is located 45km southwest of Saskatoon beside Highway 7.HistoryThe origins of the town go back to original settlement which was on the old Bone trail. It derived its name from the DeLisle family. Mrs. Lenora DeLisle with her four sons Amos, Fred, Ed and Eugene, came from North Dakota, USA in 1903 and homesteaded on the land 3 miles south of the present day townsite. With the coming of the CN Railway in 1908 the settlement to the south was forced to move to the new townsite. The town was named after the brothers on December 29, 1908. Delisle was named a town in 1913.SightsA cenotaph stands in the heart of Delisle in front of the old hospital. On it are inscribed the names of those from Delisle and surrounding area who made the supreme sacrifice in the two world wars. In 2002 the Cenotaph was given a refurbishment and was re-dedicated. The service included a small parade consisting of Girl Guides, Boy Scouts, Sparks, elementary school children, the complement of, and the RCSCC Jervis Bay Ship's Band leading the way from the Centennial Arena to the cenotaph.The town also boasts a nine-hole grass green golf course (Valleyview Golf Course).EducationThe town supports one of the largest high schools in the Prairie Spirit School Division bringing in students from smaller, nearby villages and hamlets such as Laura, Kinley, Donavon, Swanson, Vanscoy and the Pike Lake district, as well as rural students.
