The Village of Empress

is nestled between the Red Deer River and the South Saskatchewan River, at the eastern edge of Alberta. There is a wild feel to this quaint village surrounded by expansive farms and ranches, pronghorns, coyotes and so many different species of birds. The recreation opportunities for adventurers and star-gazers are boundless. Come and see for yourself!

Empress is turning 100 years old!

Posted on July 17, 2014 under: Announcements

We want to extend a warm welcome to all those who have come to help us celebrate our birthday bash. After all the months of preparation and planning, it is heartwarming to see such a great response from former residents, relatives, old neighbors and friends. The Council wish to pay special homage to the centennial committee and commend them for the wonderful job they have done to pull this off. So when you see one of our volunteers, don’t be afraid to pat them on the back and say thank you for a job well done. We have 3 days of fun planned, with activities for all ages, so no excuses, – go out and have some fun!
