Community Activity Guide

Community Activity Guide resident survey open May 8 to 19.

The Community Activity Guide showcases recreation and social activities provided by Lac La Biche County, partners, non-profit organizations and groups who provide programs, events & services, facility and hall rentals, and includes a community contacts directory. We review and compare our guide to other municipality and town recreation & leisure guides, but we want to hear what you think.

What is your preferred way to receive and read the guide now? What information is important to you and your household? What types of information or resources should be included to help them residents feel connected and aware of what is available? Is there anything missing to make the guide a complete “one-stop-shop” for all your program and service needs? These are just a few things we would like you to consider when completing the survey.

At the end of the survey there are options to:

-Provide your email address to be entered into a draw to win some great door prizes or a Bold Center 10th anniversary commemorative gift!
-Join our monthly mailing list to receive offers, notices and program updates
-Provide your mailing address if you would like to receive the Community Activity Guide direct to your mailbox

Your ideas, suggestions and feedback are important to us. Thank you for participating.
