SaskLakes Weekly Update

This newsletter is your weekly guide to what's happening around Saskatchewan lakes, including featured lakes, community photos, news, site updates, and upcoming events to help you make the most of your time at the lake.

Canada Day at the Lake

Having Canada Day in the middle of the week does make this a bit tricky, but this is still going to be a big lake week for a lot of people.

The weather doesn't seem to be playing along very well in a lot of places, but I hope you can still get out and make the most of it!

There are a ton of events happening this week for Canada Day. Prince Albert National Park, many Provincial Parks, and quite a few of the Regional Parks are all having events.

I've added some to the SaskLakes Calendar, but there are so many that I haven't been able to add them all.

Check out the SaskLakes Calendar to see some of the events or to add your own to the calendar.

High Flow Advisory for North Saskatchewan River and Saskatchewan River

The Water Security Agency (WSA) has issued a high flow advisory for the North Saskatchewan River and Saskatchewan River systems following significant rainfall in Alberta over the past week.

High flow and lots of debris in the river. Be careful if you're down near the river.

Site Updates

Beaches

I've pushed out some updates to the beaches page, and we're seeing the first test results from the Healthy Beaches Program for the summer.

You can search beaches by name, lake, and see photos. For lakes that have been tested as part of the Healthy Beaches Program you can see the test results as well.

360 photos

I've started uploading some of the 360 photos I've taken over the years to the site. You can view them on the photos page and on the lake pages where available.

I've mostly taken them at boat launches, and they give a really neat perspective when checking out the area.
