The SLSBC tournament is happening this Saturday, Aug 17th! Make sure that you have purchased a full family ($170) or full single ($90) membership to participate in this super fun event.

Memberships can be purchased here.

As always, this event needs lots of volunteers to happen. Please email info@slsbc.ca if you can volunteer. Volunteers can still compete in the tournament and you don’t need to have a boat to volunteer.

The schedule of activities for the day is:

Skiing  7am-9am

Foiling 9am-10am

Surfing 10am -12pm

Ceremony/BBQ start at 12 pm

Participants will compete in the order they arrive in and beginner skiers will go at the end of the session. Events will run one after the other so timing above is approximate and depends on number of attendees. 

If you don’t want to participate as a competitor, come out and watch the fun and join in for the ceremony/BBQ. Please purchase a social membership if you want to attend and not compete.

Get some rest because the ultimate Sakinaw day is happening July 27… 

8-3pm Boardroom Demo Day where you can get coaching as well as demo The Boardroom’s latest gear. Waterski, wakeboard and foil with Murray and Max. Bring your boat by and one of the seasoned pros can jump in with you and give you some tips! Or just come by and pick up what you want and try it out. They are also offering advice on correct boat set up for all these sports so make sure you ask the questions! Members get discounts from the Boardroom so make sure you take advantage of the savings while supporting our great partner over the years.

Location: Bell A-frame at the point of Square Bay. We will have tents set up so you can’t miss it.

Evening Concert 6pm: Don’t miss the event of the summer – the Sakinaw Lake concert! Join everyone on the lake for an awesome line up with improved sound system! The Marwills will be back, joined by Buzza and the Reckless Insanity, playing from the waterski dock starting at 6 pm. Pull you boats around and enjoy a great night of live music at the lake.

Concerts are organized by SLSBC but rely on donations to convert the costs. Donations can be made here.

Another way to support the concerts is spread the word to friends to join SLSBC as a social member! 

Don’t forget to order your Kits Beer Order  for pick up on the day of the concert! Kits beer is offering pre-orders before the 25th. Order online and pick up the day of the concert. Please support another awesome SLSBC partner and Sakinaw local! See instructions on how to order and pick up!
