Thirty four buildings. Tens of generations. Memories that precede roads, indoor plumbing, and two world wars. The finest of early 20th century brick and wood buildings. Civic buildings and private residences. Alas, no outdoor biffies to sniffle while reflecting on "the good old days". Who in the world reading this might remember the name of the piece of equipment that came to collect the "biffy" stuff? If you guessed "honey wagon", you're right! Who might know that Okotoks was contained between the river and the north escarpment until the late 1970s?

The Okotoks and District Historical Society, in partnership with the Town, created the Heritage Walking Tour which is a visual acknowledgement of our town’s history. Interpretive signs have been installed in 34 locations in Okotoks, concentrated on Elma Street, McRae Street, North Railway Street, Elizabeth Street and Riverside Drive.
