History


Young came into being with the coming of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. Young incorporated as a village on June 7, 1910.[5] It was named for F.G. Young, a land agent.

A limestone kiln producing 1000 bushels of lime a day was established in the town at the northwest end of 2 Avenue.

It has a 3 sheet curling rink with artificial ice and hockey arena, a swimming pool, golf course, ball diamonds and playground.[6]

A fire destroyed the village's oldest building, the former Young Hotel, on November 12, 2011. The hotel was built in 1910.[7]
