Partners & Community

  Sandy Shores offers numerous recreational facilities thanks to the generousity of the community and partners!
  
  Playground: The TN Playground at Sandy Shores Resort has been a big success with residents and visitors. The playground includes a wide variety of structures including a u-swing, multiple slides, various climbing structures and monkey bars, swing set, multi-bouncer, and the featured Blue Imp Express Train. The Rec In Motion Committee, part of the Sandy Shores Resort Community Association, worked hard to decide on structures that would benefit the largest age range so that everyone could enjoy some aspects of the playground. Once the quotes were received, fundraising including the annual Anniversary BBQ, raffle tickets, and bottle drives were used to raise funds for the playground. Volunteers generously donated their time to help prep the playground location and install the structures. Sponsorships were extremely important to making the playground a reality. A train shaped sign with face cutout has now been installed at the playground to display the playground rules as well as to acknowledge those sponsorships.

  Trails were constructed by Lake Life Properties. Improvements and maintenance are generously sponsored by The Great Trail (Trans Canada Trail). Paving improvements in several sections have improved access and limit maintenance required in the spring. The network of trails provide lasting benefits by connecting people with nature, promoting physical activity, and supporting mental health. The trails encourage outdoor recreation such as hiking, biking, and walking. There are some unique hidden gems and shoreline views.
  

  Speed calming measures, such as speed bumps and radar speed signs sponsored by SGI, play an important role in improving community safety. These tools remind drivers to slow down, reduce speeding in high-traffic or residential areas, and create safer environments for pedestrians, cyclists, and children. By making drivers more aware of their speed, these measures help prevent collisions, protect vulnerable road users, and support SGI’s broader commitment to traffic safety and accident prevention.

  Thank you to Dakota Dunes Community Development Fund for sponsoring Lilac Park and Reconciliation Park. These beautiful green spaces enhance well-being, foster community connections, and support a healthier environment—essential assets for a vibrant, sustainable community.
