Park Hours
Please check the website for up-to-date park hours. As we move into fall, the park will close earlier in the evening, matching sunset.
Back To School
We hope that everyone had an amazing summer.
As we move into fall, we would like to remind everyone of some of our fishing rules:
• Fishing privileges are restricted to three (3) guests per member. Members must actively be fishing with their guests. Guests are not permitted to take or remove fish from the property.
• Fishing after sunset is not permitted and all fishermen must check out at the front office 15 minutes before closing.
As always, please make sure you have read the lake’s rules and regulations.
Fun Fact
Did you know that the irrigation system at the park pulls water from the lake? Because of this, we are exempt from any city water restrictions and, more recently, can use the irrigation system to control the lake water level when it gets too high.
Looking Forward
October 25 – Annual Pumpkin Hunt (Pre-registration will be required)
December 2025 – Skate with Santa (date TBD)
January/February 2026 – Skating Lessons
Message From the President
It’s September. Summer is fleeting. But we can usually draw out another warm month in September. We hope that you continue to enjoy the beach as we ease into autumn.
I would like to take a moment and thank all the families that came to enjoy movie on the beach. It remains a favourite event, and it brings us joy to see the hill full of members and their guests.
This summer was especially wet. Plenty of rainfall kept our water level high on the lake. Did you know that our park is watered from lake water. We ran our irrigation systems to manage high water levels this year. Although we love the sunshine, I think we really did need the rain. It has been a contrast to the hot dry summers we’ve had for the past three years.
Things to do at the lake before we must yield to the shoulder season… come and try the disc golf course. Shoot hoops at the basketball court. September weather is ideal for pickleball. Or have a lazy picnic. What’s that? Bring your takeout and pop into the lake and enjoy a sandwich or pizza at a picnic table. Or start a habit to take you into winter – come walk a lap around the hill each day. I see it all the time… The lake is for using.
See you at the lake,
Jen Hawkins
