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 Project :: A Renewed Community Place PDF Print E-mail
Written by The Editor   
The renewed Alex Anderson Memorial Sports Club and Legion Hall Inc. will be located adjacent to the sports grounds / baseball diamond along Highway 59. Preliminary design has been provided by MMP Architects. Construction will be phased in over several years, enabling the continued fund raising efforts, and the development of a viable and sustainable facility.

The highlights of the proposed facility includes:

Development of a multi-function facility that is capable of well serving, both, the year round residents and the summer cottager communities in many ways, through features such as:
  • A curling rink that doubles as a skateboard venue during the summer months and includes a walking track;
  • A bowling alley that meets the expressed desires of a growing seniors population as well as the area young people;
  • An emergency reception facility and staging point to respond to natural or man-made disasters that can strike the community;
  • A dining and social hall (with kitchen facilities) for regularly scheduled events such as curling bonspiels, fish fry fund raisers, etc., as well as a place for special events for weddings, anniversary, or birthday parties or family reunions, hosted in the beach environment, rather than in Winnipeg.
  • An on-going series of 'events' for the enjoyment of area residents and cottagers alike. The facility can offer weekly events that offer alternative activities at 'the lake' such as:
Corn roasts, barbeque nights and theme;
Concerts, recreation and sporting events.

The facility will also able to support more passive, on-going activities that provide alternative activities and places to go, such as a cafe / lounge, and / or an internet cafe (for cottagers suffering from email withdrawl).
