Your Recreation Facilty!
The Sports Club

For over fifty years the Victoria Beach Sports club has been a place of community. Where children have grown up and adults have enjoyed each other's company. The numerous activities and events hosted by the club and its many volunteers has helped to kindle a sense of belonging to the many people in the area. The drawing area of the Sports Club is much larger than the Rural Municipality of Victoria Beach. The club draws in people from Albert Beach, Hillside Beach, Traverse Bay, Belair even as far as Grand Marais and Powerview-Pine Falls.

Membership

We have extremely reasonable membership fees for general use of the Sports Club. Individuals pay $10.00 and families are assessed $25.00. To cover specific costs, there can be additional registration fees for activities and events. For more information contact Lynn at 756-2575.

Location

There are two main facilities
  1. 5 Ash Avenue, at the junction of Pine Road. This is original site and is made up of the hall, curling rink, skating rink and canteen. Although it is in the restricted zone, special allowances are made for functions. On these occasions you can access from Ateah Road.
  2. Highway 59 by the Fire Hall. This area includes a baseball diamond, skate park, outdoor stage toboggan slide, canteen and beer gardens. The open space between the beer garden and the toboggan hill is the future home for the Community Centre.
The Club

Note: The Victoria Beach Club and Clubhouse on Pier road operate in July & August and are independent from the Victoria Beach Sports Club.

The Future :: To Sustain And Grow PDF Print E-mail
In planning the development of the new facility, every consideration is being given to ensuring that the club is affordable and can be sustained in the long term. It is ultimately important that the club be available for future generations, and that its history be maintained.

To this end, a number of plans are being developed:

The overall projected cost of the complete facility would be approximately $2.85 million. Phased construction and completion of various elements of the building, beginning with priority recreation and gathering space will require approximately $1.4 to $1.6 million.
  • The majority of features within the facility are capable of generating revenues that are neccessary for viability. Some features include:
  • Limited space for rental of offices, such as the post office and summer enterprises such as phisiotherapy offices also being considered.
  • Rental of quality gathering space for cottagers to hold special family events within the beach enviroment that they love, as an alternative to Winnipeg.
Fund raising is being initiated through:
  • Grant applications to government and private foundation sources.
  • A series of local fund rasing events, such as the bi-annual fish fry, dances and socials;designed to raise dollars, and visibility.
  • A direct donation campaign, focused through a campaign committee whose membership includes individuals from across the cottage area.
