About

Under the direction of the Recreation Board, the Recreation Program is responsible for developing and implementing age-appropriate recreational programs for the community of Sandy Lake utiliizing available resources.

The Recreation Program operates and maintains one indoor arena.  Artificial ice is maintained seasonally and accommodates ice sports like hockey and broomball through a scheduled format.  Two staff members are trained in ice and arena maintenance.  A concession stand at the arena is operated by volunteers as needed.

The Recreation Program works in partnership with other local community programs to maximize the success of organized events.  The Recreation Program is also responsible for overseeing the coordination of annual community events like Treaty Days.

Organized recreational sports and tournaments are coordinated regularly by the Recreation Director.  For updated sports events, visit the Sandy Lake Recreation homepage.
