Sturgeon Point Annual Skate & Shinny is back again this Holiday Season!

Thank you to Larry Thomas for organizing the Annual Skate & Shinny again this year!

Better sharpen your skates, tape your sticks, find a helmet and stock up on Advil, it’s official, the shinny/skating times are booked!

Here are the confirmed times and venues. Lock them in your calendars!

  •    December 27 3-5PM : Fenelon Falls Arena
  •    December 29 11AM-1PM:  Bobcaygeon Arena (please note, this is a colder arena, so put on your wollies!)
  •    December 30 3-5PM: Fenelon Falls Arena

For those of you who haven’t participated before, we use 2/3′s of the rink for shinny and 1/3 for recreational skaters, little ones and UN observers. We play 5 minute periods split between younger skaters (roughly 12 and under) and the rest of the motley crew. This keep the little ones out of harms way and the old guys get a break every five minutes to catch their breath.

Contributions to the cause are as follows : $20 / family and $10 / single / day. Funds can given to me or my “agent” in my absence.

Feel free to share this with family and friends.

Please “join” on our Facebook page if you are going to attend!

Looking forward to seeing you all over the holidays.

(Please not that these are not SPA events, just the gathering of friends and family on the ice.)

Sturgeon Point Leaf Dump

The Leaf Dump is certainly at it’s busiest these days and it has become apparent that it is getting close to capacity. There has been a bit of contention at the leaf dump as of late, with some notice of construction material and brush being dumped as well as non-community members using it.  The village is privileged to have such a convenient location to dispose of leaves and clippings.  Unfortunately, with the Leaf Dump being mis-used, the cost of maintaining this area is rising. 

The Leaf Dump is owned by the Sturgeon Point Land Trustees and maintained by the Sturgeon Point Association with operating costs covered by the Sturgeon Point Association membership fees. We are concerned that with the increase in cost to maintain the Leaf Dump could result in increasing membership fess or having to close the Leaf Dump.  After a meeting with the Sturgeon Point Land Trustees, it was decided that the Leaf Dump should only be available for Sturgeon Point Association Members. As of November 1st, a combination lock will be put on the entrance gate to the Leaf Dump. All Sturgeon Point Association Members will be given the combination in a future email. We would ask that you unlock the gate when in use and lock it when not in use. We are hoping this will streamline the operation of the dump.

If you are not a Sturgeon Point Association member, please go to the Sturgeon Point Association website for a membership form (https://www.sturgeonpoint.com/spa-membership/).


Thank you,
