Kenton is an unincorporated community recognized as a local urban district[1] in Manitoba, Canada.
[4] Water supply for the community is from the nearby half-mile long Kenton Reservoir on Bars Creek, a tributary of the Oak River.
The 600 acre foot reservoir was constructed in 1969 by the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration[5] and also provides an opportunity for sport fishing.
Kenton features a full service Campground and Swimming area, Walking Trail, Hockey Rink, Curling Rink, Grocery Store, Restaurant, Vehicle Dealership, Legion, Community Hall, Gas Station, Liquor Store, Lumber Yard, and Fiber Optic internet (300 Mbit/s).
The local lighting plant was replaced with a connection to the provincial electric power grid in 1931.
