Saturday, July 2nd – Fireworks Celebration

Hello everyone,

There will be a post Canada Day Fireworks celebration on Saturday, July 2nd starting at 10:30 pm. The fireworks will be on display at the head of Ruggles Bay. We feel this is the largest open area of the lake and the safest place to have the fireworks display.

Please note this is a non-sanctioned SLSBC event, no clubs funds were used to purchase fireworks.

Sincerely,

Ken Johnston

Fireworks Show cancelled due to dry conditions

Hello Sakinaw Lake!

As many of you know, we were planning on the 2nd annual fireworks show on August 2nd. As of right now the show is postponed until a later date due to the dry conditions. The fireworks were set off in the middle of the lake far away from cabins and trees, but with these dry conditions we do not want to take any chances.

We had great feedback from last year and planned an even bigger show, but we will wait until conditions improve.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,

Ken Johnston.

PS. This is a non-sanctioned SLSBC event, no club funds are used to purchase fireworks.
