2012 SPA Membership

It’s the start of a new cottage season and we’re appealing to all Sturgeon Pointers purchase a membership in the Sturgeon Point Association. Your membership dollars allow SPA to meet its responsibilities in managing the Trust Lands that we all enjoy. In addition, funds are used pay for the many social events that we organise. Interested parties can review SPA’s financial statements which can be found near the bottom of the SPA Archives page. These will tell you exactly how we spend the revenues that we collect.

Membership registration only takes a couple of minutes, and you have two options. You can print out the SPA Membership Form 2012 and fill it out, or you can use our convenient and secure online payment option by going to our Membership Registration Page. If you choose the pen and paper option and you’re up at the Point, you can just put your form and payment directly into our mailbox at the Park.

Every membership makes a big difference! Thank you very much.

Upper Wharf

In the quietness of the fall, there have been some busy guys around working on the Upper Wharf area.  W. G. Jackett & Sons have installed natural stone stairs at the Upper Wharf to make it more accessible for everyone in Sturgeon Point.  Below is a before and a few after pictures.

The majority of the work has been completed, but there is more to do.  We are hoping that everything will be finished by the spring.

There will be a stair railing installed, the posts (also called “bollards”) are to be replaced, and general beautification with plants and flowers to be done in the spring.

Next time you are near the Upper Wharf – check out the new steps.  We would love to hear what you think of them.  And please let us know if you would like to help with the beautification in the spring!
