Hemphill County can boast being home to a true Texas oasis. The Canadian and Washita Rivers, along with all of their tributaries, symbolize not only a precious resource, but a way of life surrounding water that has defined our community for more than a century.

As a rural and progressive community, Canadian is embraced in a rich heritage past, yet poised and ambitious towards the future. Protecting our natural assets, namely water, through outreach programs and educational events is a key component to striking that delicate balance between, then, now, and tomorrow.
