Provincial Parks Open May Long Weekend
Saskatchewan Provincial Parks will officially open for the season on Thursday, May 19, 2016. Visitation to provincial parks set a record in 2015, with nearly 3.9 million visits.
In 2015, the Government of Saskatchewanmet its commitment of investing an additional $10 million over four years into the provincial park system. The total investment in capital projects and capital maintenance over the past four years is more than $53 million.
With more reservations than ever booked during this year’s campsite reservation launch, SaskParks is anticipating another successful season.
“Saskatchewan’s provincial parks are where people go to make memories, enjoy recreational activities, and connect with nature,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Mark Docherty said. “With stunning natural features, fantastic amenities and high-quality programming, it’s no surprise that our parks continue to grow in popularity.”
