NEW LAKE SUNDANCE LOGO!
Hi Fellow Sundance Residents,
We are delighted to introduce our new Lake Sundance logo which blends the heritage of our almost 40 year old logo with a new modern design. Special thanks to Larry Day, a former Board member, for his generous assistance in the redesign.
Over the past year you will have seen new fencing and lighting and soon we will be updating our old signage throughout the park.
Your Board of Directors is focused on bringing the best possible member experience to you and your families.
Our new logo continues to focus on our lake and all the amazing experiences you and your family can enjoy as a Lake Sundance resident from our winter sports, tobogganing, skating, ice hockey, fishing to our summer experiences of wind surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, disc golf, basketball, tennis, horseshoe, beach volleyball, soccer, fishing, kids toddler pool to simply enjoying our floating dock and sandy beach.
We look forward to seeing you and your families at one of our many park events from the upcoming Easter Egg Hunt, Stampede Breakfast, Family Movie Nights, Fishing Derby, Christmas and New Year’s Party.
Warmest regards,
Anne Radic
Sundance Board Secretary
Signage - All of the signs in the park were updated this summer. What do you think of our new look?
Smoke-Free Park & Lake - Lake Sundance is now a smoke-free and vape-free zone. Thank you for your cooperation.
Alcohol - We have had problems with members and guests bringing alcoholic beverages into the park. We would like to remind everyone that we have a "zero tolerance" policy and alcohol and drugs are strictly prohibited in the park, on the lake and on lake access walkways.
Water Well - We are in the process of drilling a second water well on the west side of the park. Both the well and the observation well have been drilled and the next step is to begin flow testing to see how much water the well is capable of producing. Once we have that, we will prepare the necessary permit forms and wait for the province to give us our license. Our hope is to have this second well producing by June 2019. The water well that was drilled in 2011 paid for itself within the first 5 years of use.
Water Quality - The Board has hired a Limnologist to work with us on understanding issues related to weeds and algae.
Day Lockers - There are day use lockers in both the clubhouse and the south washrooms. Users will need to bring their own locks.
Grant from Husky Energy Community Grant Program - Husky Energy supports its employees who volunteer in the communities where they live and work through its Husky Energy Community Grant Program. This Community Grant Program funds not-for-profit organizations that the Company's employees are involved in. Through this Program, Husky and its employees are making a measurable impact on improving the life of others. In particular, we would like to recognize Kevin Egan from Husky Energy for volunteering with us. With Kevin's help, we were able to secure a permit a few years ago to drill a water well, which allows us to top up the lake water and provides us with significant cost savings each year. This grant from Husky Energy will go towards drilling a second water well, which is needed to help replace the lake water that is lost through evaporation. Thanks Kevin Egan!!
2017-2018 Lake Fees - Unpaid accounts were sent for collections as of May 1/18. All costs associated with collection will be charged to the homeowners.
Whirling Disease - Whirling Disease affects salmonid fishes, including trout, and has been found in many locations in Alberta and in the Calgary area. It can be transmitted through spores that attach to equipment used for swimming, paddling, boating, and fishing. Please help stop the spread of Whirling Disease by making sure that any boats, fishing gear, water toys and life jackets that you will be using on multiple water bodies are cleaned of all debris, washed and drained. Please also allow your equipment to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before using it on a new body of water.
Message from the Board of Directors regarding guest policies:
In recent years, our facility has become increasingly crowded, mainly because we have never had a limit on the number of guests our members can bring into the lake. Although we are very happy to see everyone enjoying our lake facilities, it has become difficult for our members to find space for their families. After much research and debate we have developed what we feel is a very reasonable limit to the number of guests our members can bring into the lake. This will ensure that the facility and the park are available for the enjoyment of our residents. Effective immediately, adult members may bring in up to a maximum of 12 guests per household per day. Groups of 13-30 guests must be pre-approved by management and guest lists must be submitted to the office at least 3 business days in advance of your function. Guest forms will be available on our website and can be submitted via email or dropped off at the office. As always, members must be present in the park at all times while their guests are using the facility.
Guest Policies
Disc Golf - We are pleased to announce that a 6 hole Disc Golf Course has been installed in the park. Course maps and discs are available at the office.
Tennis Courts & Pickleball - 2 of our 4 tennis courts were resurfaced last summer and pickleball lines were added to those 2 courts. All courts are available on a first come, first served basis. Please be sure to limit your time on the courts to 45 minutes during busy times.

Volunteers Needed to Help with Events
Our Social Committee is working hard to bring some new and entertaining events to our lake, but some of our future events are ambitious and will require a "network of community volunteers" to make them a success. Your involvement in our community events is critical! If you or someone in your family can volunteer a little bit of time during these events please fill out the electronic form at the bottom of this page and check the box "I am interested in volunteering at upcoming events. Please add me to your list of potential volunteers." Signing up to be part of our "network" does not mean you are committed to helping out for a given event. It just means that your name will be in our volunteer bank, and if we are in need of volunteers then you will receive notice of what is happening and what we need. Volunteering is completely optional. Volunteers that donate a minimum of 5 hours of their time per year will be invited to "Volunteer Appreciation Night". Thank you in advance from the Social Committee!!
Electronic Notices
-If you would like to receive notices about upcoming events at the lake via email, please fill out the form below.
-Have you signed up for electronic notices but aren't receiving them? Please make sure you add us to your address book so the emails aren't being rejected as "spam". Don't forget to notify us if your email address changes.
-We are currently investigating the possibility of sending future annual invoices out via email. Not only would this be more environmentally friendly, but it would be much more cost effective as well. We would like to start collecting your email addresses for this purpose so please fill out the form below.
