Summer services start this Sunday (July 5th) at the beautiful Sturgeon Point Union Church. The full 2009 summer schedule has been updated and can be found on the Church web page. The schedule will be posted on the site all summer. Check the page anytime for other church related news and updates.

The sailing program starts up for the summer on Monday July 6 at the Sturgeon Lake Sailing Club. Hundreds of local kids have been attending the great summer sailing programs offered at the club for over 50 years, and this year’s group of instructors are busy getting everything ready for another summer of sun and sail. Geared towards youngsters between the ages of 8 to 16 years of age, sailing club runs every weekday from 8:30 to 12:30 until August 28. Head over to the SLSC web site to find out more. Highly recommended!

The park restoration and renewal project is winding down to a very successful completion, and the park is ready to be enjoyed by all. Come celebrate at the Park Grand Opening Ceremony at noon on July 4th. We will be unveiling a plaque recognizing the tremendous contributions that made the project possible. We’ll also be having a barbeque lunch for everyone to enjoy. See you there!

This is a reminder that tennis camp and lessons will be available again this summer. Appleton Tennis will be serving up another smash at the Appleton Cottage Tennis Court on Sandy Point Road. Tennis ace Daniel Austin-Appleton, a TPA Certified Pro, will be serving up fun for kids and adults. Please check out the Tennis page on this web site for more information.

Voices for the TSW are a group of concerned residents, cottagers, business people and city councillors intersted in issues such as infrastructure repair, water quality and conservation, and economic and environmental impacts of the TSW on the surrounding regions. Last year the group published a report entitled “Its All About the Water”. They recently published Position Paper-Voices for the TSW and will be discussing this at an open meeting on May 30th in Buckhorn.
