Events

The summer is almost over. Despite not being able to run clinics or the tournament, it has been great to see so many people out enjoying the lake: swimming, skiing, surfing, tubing and wakeboarding.

This is our sixth summer on the lake, so we are relative newcomers. One of my first impressions of Sakinaw was of the amazing community and friendships. The people around the lake are so incredibly generous with their time and knowledge and that, along with the crystal clear and warm water, is part of what makes Sakinaw so great.

Sakinaw Lake is such a special place for all of us. To pay tribute to this, Barry Krangle has collected a series of ten photos from around the lake. How well do you know the lake? Test yourself and see if you can identify these special locations.

To enter, email your answers, numbered 1 to 10 to info@slsbc.ca by next Friday, Sept 4th. Winners will receive prizes – also collected by Barry! – that we will try and distribute over the Labour Day weekend. Good luck and happy guessing!
