The park is in a serious situation that many members do not fully understand. If we fail to provide water testing to the province, they could shut down our water system.
No water means no sewer, no laundry, etc.
We urgently need volunteers to help test the water daily. The process is simple and only takes a few minutes. Additionally, we need to send samples to Winnipeg every couple of weeks for third-party testing.
We need a team of testers to take turns testing the water and recording the results.
There will be a training session planned for Saturday June 7th at 10:30 AM at the pump house by the mail hall, on how to perform the tests. We must have assistance to prevent the park from being shut down.
It's that simple.
Please refrain from abusing the sewer system.
Do not dispose of items in the sewer that are not appropriate for flushing. The sewer system is designed for human waste only.
Stop flushing food, grease, personal hygiene products, and other items that are not human waste.
The image above shows solid grease that recently came out of H SECTION sewer lines.
Unless you are prepared to come out during your dinner hour or beach time to dig and clean pipes, avoid flushing inappropriate items.
Tips: It is advisable to flush a clean bowl or two to prime your sewer drains when you first arrive, especially at the start of a season.
Please be considerate and avoid flushing items that should not be flushed.
Due to the anticipated dry summer this season, the park will be performing fire safety checks on each trailer. Remember you must have a water hose connected to your outside tap and a working fire extinguisher and smoke detectors.
Please help keep the part safe and meet these requirements.
The park would like to put together a team of water testers to ensure our drinking water is safe.
If you are able to be part of a team of 4-6 people to take turns testing the water that would be appreciated.
Please contact a member of the board to volunteer.
Volunteer Reminder

REMINDER OF A SAFE SWIMMING AREA
The HBTP Board would like to remind our members to please practice good watercraft safety. Please operate your crafts away from the safety buoys marking a safe swimming area.

Volunteering is crucial for keeping things running smoothly in our park. It fills gaps, provides essential services, and fosters a sense of unity and support. But it also enriches our own lives. Whether it's lending a hand at an event or helping with repairs and maintenance, every volunteer effort contributes to a more vibrant and connected membership. Please let a board member know you are ready and willing to help wherever possible.
