Ponteix

Ponteix (/ˈpɒntɛks/, PON-teks) is a town in southwestern Saskatchewan, Canada, 86 kilometres (53 mi) southeast of Swift Current.

In 1908, Father Albert-Marie Royer from the Auvergne region in France established a parish and hamlet called Notre-Dame d’Auvergne north of Notukeu Creek.

[4] Five years later, the townsite was moved south of the creek when the Canadian Pacific Railway laid track there.

[6] According to the 2011 federal census, 175 of Ponteix's residents spoke both official languages (English and French).

[11] The Ponteix Golf Club has grass greens and is a 9-hole, par 33 course that totals 2,485 yards.
