The board finally said yes to the swim dock and it feels like the whole neighborhood is buzzing with the news. I am genuinely stunned that we actually pulled this off because I honestly thought it would take way longer to convince them. Keep an eye out at the beach …

Every lake community in Southeast Calgary, except Auburn Bay, has a swimming dock or platform located on the water near their swimming areas. These are great for kids and adults and it opens up even more activities and fun things to do at our beautiful beach facility. Properly situated, they are safe and they provide hours and hours of fun and exercise for the HOA paying residents of Auburn Bay and their guests. They’re inexpensive to purchase, anchor, and maintain so this petition serves as the voice of many of the residents who would love to see the Auburn Bay Residents Association approve and finance one from the funds made available to them through the residents themselves. Thank you and hopefully we all have a great summer with many sunny days ahead.

The count is creeping toward that two fifty mark and honestly I think we could hit it by tonight if everyone just sends the link to their neighbors right now. I keep thinking about how much better the lake would look with a dock out there and I know we have enough people who want this to get the HOA to actually start listening.

We should have had one years ago! This is long overdue. As well, they need to bring back the canoes.

This is a great idea! I have seen them at many lakes and they are popular with bigger kids (who would love to go beyond our very shallow swimming area!). Add a slide as well! So fun!

I’m all in. I’ll even volunteer my time in any way to help make this happen. Building or moving it.

We need this!!! All other communities have swim docks!!! We need several to be honest.

Even if the "island" is just that or they add a slide and such it'd be great to have, I remember using something like that back in Lima at a club, they are fun!

I loved swimming to the dock as a kid, 100% the kids would love one for our lake. 2 would be even better!
