Custodial history

The provenance of this series is not clear but the various records from Conference Committees, Boards, Camps and related bodies may have been collected by office staff or committee members and then passed on to the Conference Archives. While they were described in one series, several of the records could arguably make up distinct series (or collections) themselves.

Records in this series were likely received between 1925 and 1986, while the Conference Archives was located at St. Andrew’s College (Saskatoon). In 1982, Saskatchewan Conference signed an agreement to house their records with the Saskatchewan Archives Board (now Provincial Archives of Saskatchewan) and the collection was relocated, to the Saskatoon office of SAB. In 2019, Saskatchewan UCC collections were consolidated in Regina.
