[[Dominion Lands Act|Homesteaders]] began arriving in the Champion area in 1904 and 1905, mainly from the USA, Eastern Canada, and [[United Kingdom|Britain]]. The vast [[prairie]] [[grassland]]s, cut through by the [[Little Bow River]], provided ideal country for farming and [[ranching]]. One of these settlers was Martin G. Clever, who arrived in 1905. He homesteaded on the [[quarter section]] of land (160 acres) where the town of Champion is currently located.
