History books tell us that in the late 19th Century, Premier Thomas Greenway was responsible for bringing more settlers to Manitoba than Lord Selkirk. This man was from Crystal City and we now hope to emulate history by encouraging folk as he did to come to this countryside. In this village of Crystal City when we speak of wild life we arent referring to street gangs, the latest mugging or theft, we mean enjoying nature at its fullest. In the spring the sky and fields are filled with geese as we are on a main migration path. A deer may wander into your garden and nip off a tasty tulip bloom. If you are an insomniac you can enjoy the eerie howl of coyotes from a nearby hill. Beaver, moose and wild turkeys are frequently spotted. Summer visitors are impressed by the care and pride shown by individuals as they keep their yards and streets neat and beautiful. Children love playing in our two parks while the school property is also accessible for games and recreation. Several generations have played happily on the big parks horse swings, fondly remembered by a local author in her writings.

In 1945 W.B. 'Tommy' Humphreys returned to Jackson, MS after four years of serving his country. Tommy arrived home to a new wife and no source of income but had no interest in taking on the family business of farming. Soon after, a local company, JB Stokes, was looking for a worker. They had three eager men show up to claim the job. An ultimatum was handed down; 'All of you will be on the payroll for one week, and the best worker gets the job.' As my Grandmother told me, 'And knowing your grandfather, you know who won the job of course.' Within a few years Tommy became a leader within the company and moved to Mobile, AL to manage a regional branch.
