Churchbridge is a part of the rural municipality of Churchbridge 211, which is located within Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM) Division No. 1 and census division Number 5. HistoryChurchbridge began with the arrival of settlers from the Anglican Colonization Society, with director and missionary Reverend Robert Bridger. The village of Churchbridge was incorporated in 1903 with James Heasman as the overseer. He was solely responsible for the affairs of the village. There was no council, but M. Thorlakson and A.O. Berger, both hotel keepers, were trustees, which meant they made themselves responsible for the honesty and integrity of the overseer in his financial duties. In 1962, there were 260 people residing the village, and by 1964, the population had risen to 600. The village became a town in 1964.
