BUFFALO POUND PROVINCIAL PARK CELEBRATES SASKATCHEWAN CENTENNIAL

Released on July 20, 2005

During centennial celebrations at Buffalo Pound Provincial Park, including a performance by Dancing Sky Theatre, Environment Minister David Forbes unveiled a Centenary plaque to recognize the province's $213,511 investment in the park.

Centenary funds were used to replace playground equipment, upgrade campground electrification at Shady Lane and Maple Vale campgrounds, and upgrade the Nicolle Flats homestead area, including new signage.

"We are pleased and proud to dedicate these facilities to the people of Saskatchewan," Forbes said. "These improvements will ensure park visitors will experience a safe and enjoyable park visit. We can look back on Saskatchewan's past with pride and a sense of accomplishment and forward with confidence and optimism for what the future holds for our province and our people."

Through the four-year, $120 million Centenary Fund program, the parks program received $6.8 million to complete important capital projects for Saskatchewan's centennial.

Saskatchewan's provincial parks celebrate our diverse natural and cultural heritage and are an important legacy for future generations. Each park highlights specific natural or historic features and offers a range of recreational and educational opportunities.

Throughout the centennial year, Saskatchewan will continue to host a variety of special events and initiatives in celebration of the province's centennial. Check out the special centennial section at www.saskparks.net for additional centennial events.
