Okotoks does have a Junior A hockey team, unfortunately named the Oilers, and a college ball team that is a lot of fun to watch, so +1 there.
I think I read somewhere that Okotoks current population is about 20,000. I've also heard they have a population cap in place (probably because of the limited capacity of water and sewage facilities, I would guess). I don't know what the cap is though.


They have a college ball team? What college? I didn't realize that colleges played ball. I assume its baseball.
Hmmmm... I'll have to check that out. What else do people do for excitement in Okotoks during the summer?
