The world’s largest Mallard Duck!
Village of Andrew
To our visitors, welcome! To the vacation seekers, consider us! To our citizens, promote us! Yes, we do have an identity, and yes, you did hear it right - Andrew is the home of the “World’s Largest Mallard Duck.”
Although the history of Andrew commenced well before its incorporation as a village in 1930, Andrew has since been able to retain its vitality due to its ability to adapt to an ever-changing economic and social environment.
From a village that provided services to an agricultural hinterland of widespread farmsteads, Andrew has grown to become a village that provides services to both farmers and village residents, with a current focus on providing a quality of life for its citizens and visitors, be they from near or far.
We are proud of our modern school and civic, cultural and recreational centre, a jointuse facility that opened in the fall of 1992. The latter consists of the Village offices, Council Chambers, multi-use meeting room, bowling alley, exercise/weight room, sauna, and change room facilities.
Other facilities include an arena, curling rink, mini-golf, outdoor tennis and basketball courts, ball diamonds, campground, picnic areas, museum, caboose car, and community drop-in centre.
During the course of 2020, make Andrew a place you visit. If you have any questions or inquiries, please call or visit our staff at the village office.
Andrew welcomes you!
