Rodeo

In recent years, Minnedosa has seen the

return of a local rodeo. After many years absence, the Minnedosa Rodeo was resurrected in 2004 by a group of community residents who felt there was a rodeo gap which needed fi lling. Boy were they right! Th e rodeo has continued to grow in popularity and in 2009, the Minnedosa Rodeo was named Rodeo of the Year by the Heartland Rodeo Association.

Th e Minnedosa Rodeo is held during the August long weekend and features a number of familiar rodeo events such as bareback, bull riding, calf roping, saddle bronc, barrel racing, team roping, and goat tying! For the children there is the always popular Muttin’ Bustin’ and other children’s activities and attractions including

live music and a Rodeo Dance. Th e local rodeo committee has also hosted a number of Manitoba High School Rodeo events during its Heartland Rodeo weekend. Many of the rodeo competitors making an appearance at the Minnedosa Rodeo are from the local area, including a few hometown rodeo stars.

Polish up your boots, put on a pair of jeans, grab your hat and head on down to the Minnedosa Rodeo for an unforgettable down home country experience.

Fun Fest

Since 1963, Minnedosa has hosted an

unforgettable summer celebration! Over the years there have been a number of name changes for this festival but no matter what you call the current Fun Fest, there is something special for the whole family. Th e festivities kick off with Kiddies Day targeted toward the children. Th ere are numerous games and activities planned as well as a Kiddies Parade. During the parade, many children like to dress up in costumes and decorate their bicycles or wagons to show off to the parade spectators. Th e big Fun Fest Parade is held Saturday morning and features fl oats, marching bands, animals, vintage cars and tractors, and pretty much everything else a parade should have. Other popular Fun Fest attractions include pancake

breakfasts, lunches, suppers, raffl es, social gatherings, dances, bingo, and soap box derby. A downtown Farmer’s Market and Music Jam were introduced in 2010 and proved to be a success which will continue this year. Fun Fest wraps up on Sunday with Heritage Day, a celebration of the past, which is hosted at the local Museum and Heritage Village. If you happen to be in the area during the second weekend in July, be sure to take in some Fun Fest activities. It’s a summer celebration with something for the whole family to enjoy.

Heritage Village

Step back in time at the Heritage Village.

If you are interested in seeing how people lived and how things were done back in the “good old days” be sure to take a tour of the Minnedosa Museum and Heritage Village. Open during the months of July and August, as well as other times of the year by appointment, the Heritage Village features ten beautifully restored buildings, each full of artifacts from days gone by. During your tour of the village you will visit a blacksmith shop, one-room school house, country church, trapper’s cabin, period home, log barn and more. Th e most unique building on the village grounds is the two-storey octagon display building, which was moved onsite from the Minnedosa Fairgrounds and restored back to its former glory. It is one of only three such buildings still standing

i n the province and is the only one which features its original upper cupola. Other village attractions include a working windmill, wooden waterwheel and trout pond. On July 15th the Heritage Village will come alive with a pioneer church service, tours of the buildings, BBQ, music and dancing during the museum’s annual Heritage Day celebration. To get to the Museum and Heritage Village turn east off Main Street at 3rd Avenue N.E. and travel four blocks. A welcome sign and stone gate will welcome you.

Winter Fun

Minnedosa is a fabulous tourist

destination during the hot summer months, but there is also a lot of activity and special attractions for all ages during the chilly winter months. Skiing is a huge attraction and Minnedosa is fortunate to be home to a local downhill skiing venue, Ski Valley. Located 7 km northwest of the Town of Minnedosa, Ski Valley off ers nine runs for various levels of expertise, from beginners to advanced. Snowmobiling is also a huge part of winter recreation in the area. Minnedosa is home to the Valley Snow Hawks Snowmobile Club, which promotes snowmobile fun, safety and tourism. Th roughout the winter season, the club hosts a number of snowmobile related events and gives back to the community by way of fi nancial contributions. Minnedosa is connected to a groomed trail route in the area and there is a designated snowmobile route within Town limits for snowmobile enthusiasts to use to get in and out of the community and fi ll up with gas without great disturbance to

residents. For the past few winters, Healthy Active Minnedosa has established an outdoor skating oval in the community. Th is attraction is available for use by residents at no charge and has become another popular winter attraction for Minnedosa. Th e frozen surface of Minnedosa Lake is the perfect foundation of ice fi shing huts and each winter, a small community of “shacks” develops on the lake. Minnedosa, like most Canadian communities is no stranger to hockey or curling activity. Th roughout the winter, the local Arena and Curling Club are both hopping with activity as our local hockey players and curlers compete in various games, tournaments and bonspiels. If you happen to be visiting Minnedosa during the winter months, do not despair. Our community is a year-round destination.

Japanese Garden

A sister community partnership

between Minnedosa and Ishii, Japan began in the mid 1990s. The purpose behind the twinning project was to promote friendship and to facilitate the mutual understanding of our respective cultures. The partnership has been recognized in our community with the establishment of a Japanese garden which is located behind the Minnedosa Regional Library. The garden serves as a place for all Minnedosans and visitors to enjoy as well as serving as a memorial for Yuko Miyaura, one of the young Ishii delegates, who visited Minnedosa before her untimely passing. Establishing an authentic Japanese garden in Canada took a great deal of research and planning due to drastic climate differences between the two countries. Several non-plant

features can be found in the Minnedosa Japanese Garden to make it appear more authentic. These include a basin made of rock which is known as Chozubacki, a Shishi Odoshi, which is made of bamboo and a rain chain called Kusari doi. A static (non changing) Zen Garden has also been incorporated with the Minnedosa Japanese Garden. The Zen Garden is surrounded by a bamboo fence. When in Minnedosa, be sure to drop by the library and visit the Japanese Garden and take in the solitude and relaxing atmosphere it offers visitors. You’ll come away feeling refreshed and energized.

August Long weekend has rocked in

Minnedosa since 1996 when a classic rock music festival was born. Today, that festival is known as Rockin’ the Fields of Minnedosa and has grown from a three-day to four-day music extravaganza.

Rockin’ the Fields features a number of big name musical entertainers but is also much more than just music. A number of unique venders can be found onsite and special attractions such as a beach volleyball tournament add to the weekend’s excitement. Onsite camping is available. Campers always get in the spirit of the festival and many choose to decorate their campsites in some very creative and unique ways. A stroll through the camping grounds is always a worthwhile activity as you just never know what creativity you may fi nd. The

festival is currently driven by a dedicated and hard working crew of fans who work hand in hand with locals to benefi t the entire community. A number of local service clubs help out with the festival in exchange for a percentage of the festival’s proceeds. Since this partnership began, over $105,000 has been donated back to the community.

Plan to spend your August long weekend with us and help us Rock the Fields of Minnedosa! The festival site is located on the top of the hill, north of the Minnedosa campground along Provincial Road #262. The site sits along the eastern shores of the north end of Minnedosa Lake.

Recreation and Sports

Minnedosa is an active community year

round, especially when it comes to physical and recreational activities. There are walking, jogging, and running trails to explore and enjoy. If you brought your bicycle with you, feel free to cycle around the community.

continue with such activities as hockey, curling, skiing, skating, snowshoeing, tobogganing and snowmobiling. Some other recreational attractions Minnedosa has to offer include a bowling alley, fi tness and exercise centres and programs, walking clubs, indoor swimming pool, golf, a karate club, weekly bingos, billiards, shuffl eboard, darts, card games, Video Lottery Terminals, playgrounds, and more. No matter what time of the year you visit Minnedosa, or what type of recreational activities you enjoy, you are sure to fi nd something to meet your needs. Get active, play safe, and have fun!

Located in a pristine valley setting, the Minnedosa Golf Course features elevation changes of over 120 feet. From some of the higher points of the course, golfers can see why many choose to visit this beautiful community, nestled in the Little Saskatchewan valley. A game at the Minnedosa Golf Course offers relaxation and enjoyment while at the same time challenging your game skill. In addition to the game, the Minnedosa Golf and Country Club offers a fully equipped Pro Shop. Our CPGA,

Lake and Spillway

A popular attraction in our valley is the

Minnedosa Spillway. Located at the southeast corner of Minnedosa Lake, the current spillway is the second such structure to stand at this location. The original collapsed on May 4th, 1948, causing a major fl ooding disaster for downtown Minnedosa. A book on this event, Hold Back the Dam, was produced by the Minnedosa District Heritage Foundation to mark the 50th anniversary of the collapse in 1998. This book is still available for purchase at a number of local businesses. History of the spillway and Minnedosa Lake dates back to 1907 when a group of local men created the Minnedosa Power Company. The plan was to construct a dam, spillway, hydro-electric generating station and lake, which would serve as a reservoir to run the power turbines and supply electric power to the booming Town of Minnedosa. Our man-made lake is 100 years old as water fi rst fl owed over the logs of the Minnedosa

spillway on April 10th, 1912. For the three years following the spillway collapse in 1948, the lake remained dry with only the Little Saskatchewan River meandering through its once pristine waters. A combined effort of the Town and surrounding Rural Municipalities convinced government departments that the lake and spillway must be rebuilt to serve as a major water conservation area for the entire district. Work on the current spillway began in 1950 and was completed two years later. Maintenance and repairs to the spillway and earthen dam that holds the waters of Minnedosa Lake back from the town have been ongoing with the most recent major stabilization project undertaken in 2009 and 2010.

Bison Park

Located along Highway #262 between

downtown Minnedosa and Minnedosa Lake, you will fi nd a herd of bison housed in a large, fenced compound known as the Bison Park. Decades ago, bison herds, numbering in the millions roamed the plains and crossed the Little Saskatchewan River Valley as part of their natural migration route. In March 2006, the bison returned to Minnedosa, thanks to a tourism project developed by the Minnedosa Lake Rehabilitation Committee. For the past 16 years, our local herd of bison have been a popular attraction for both local residents and visitors to our community. The bison park is designed to provide a spacious grazing ground for the herd as well as visibility for spectators from all sides. The bison remain onsite at the local compound

year-round, so it does not matter what time of year you visit Minnedosa, you can always visit the bison! If you are fortunate enough to be in the area during April or May, there is a great chance you will see newborn calves roaming close to their mothers. Bison bulls live for an average of 20 years and weigh in at an average of 900 kg or 2,000 lbs. The female bison (cows) have an average lifespan of 17 years and usually weigh in the neighbourhood of 545 kg or 1,200 lbs. Bison calves are born between April and May and weigh an average of 27 kg or 60 lbs.

Spanningin excess of 600 feet,

Minnedosa’s fish ladder is the longest in Manitoba.The purpose of the fish ladder is to allow various species of fish to travel from the bottom of the Little Saskatchewan River, up into Minnedosa Lake and then further up the chain of lakes. Target fish species that will utilize the run include mature walleye, northern pike and white sucker.

Minnedosa’s fish ladder emulates a natural type of channel system. It consists of a series of pools and rock riffles. Each pool is approximately nine inches apart in elevation which gives the fish a chance to rest before continuing their climb up the fast moving water as it moves down the riffles. In total, there are 22 pool and

riffle structures along the fish ladder, before the fish travel through a 55 foot culvert and make one last burst through the exit of the structure into Minnedosa Lake. Although man made, the fish ladder has a natural appearance, as if it was meant to be in its current location.

Excellent viewing areas can be found along the entire length of the fish ladder which is located just south of Minnedosa Lake, next to the spillway. The best time to view the action of the fish ladder is in early spring during peak spawning season.

Fish Ladder

Fishing

The lakes and rivers in and around Minnedosa

are abundant with many types of fi sh and challenges for all skill levels of anglers. Some common species found in the area include Northern Pike (Jack), Walleye (Pickerel), Perch and Rock Bass. A great spot to introduce young anglers to the sport of fi shing is at the trout pond located at the Heritage Village. This pond operates on a catch and release basis early in the season. Later in the season, anglers are welcome to keep what they catch. More information on these regulations is posted near the pond. Another great spot for trout fi shing is at Anton’s Lake, which is located north of the rest stop at the intersection of highways 10 and 16 north west of Minnedosa. This

lake is stocked with brown and rainbow trout. The limit is two fi sh each and all are welcome, as long as they hold a current Manitoba fi shing license. Although no motor boats are allowed on Anton’s Lake, electric motors are. Some good fi shing spots are just above the spillway along the shores of Minnedosa Lake and below the dam and all along the shores of the Little Saskatchewan River which meanders through the community. During the winter months, many locals enjoy ice fi shing on Minnedosa Lake.

Walk the Trails

If you enjoy walking and nature,

Minnedosa has a number of trails available to check out. Entrances to the various trails can be found throughout the community such as near the CP engine and caboose in Tanner’s Park, just east of the Main Street Bridge. You can also enter the trails at the Heritage Village, or at the spillway south of Minnedosa Lake. There is also a newly developed walking trail near the schools, which are located west of Main Street on Armitage Avenue. As you wander along the many pathways available in the community, you will notice a number of special attractions. In addition to the natural attractions and scenic views, some of the trails include various informational or historic plaques, benches for resting and miniature fi tness centres where you can stretch, do some chin ups, tummy curls or more! There is also the Rotary Suspension Bridge, located southeast of the

Heritage Village and great viewing of the Bison Park from some of the trails. Along the dam, west of the spillway is the Flag Walk which features the fl ags of the country as well as some from other countries, which represent the homelands of our areas pioneers. For a walk through rustic nature, check out the Oxbow Nature Trail. This trail is located south of Minnedosa Lake, between the spillway and Heritage Village. As you make your way through the winding path, you will behold much of the natural beauty this area offers. From native grasses, wildfl owers, shrubs and trees to a variety of bird species, you are sure to spot something different each time you wander along the trail.

Lions Tower

Located on the eastern edge of the Town

of Minnedosa, you can access the Lions Lookout Tower by ascending the gravel road towards the Minnedosa Cemetery. The tower provides a spectacular view of Minnedosa Lake, beach and campground areas as well as the Bison Park and other attractions. Located at the top of the Lookout Tower is a plaque and a sighting post that details the location and the historical importance of Odanah Pass. Also, quite a nice view is provided of the Heritage Village and Museum grounds located below the tower just beyond the Bison Compound and the Rotary Suspension Bridge.

Located in that same area are the trout pond, heritage walking trails and the Oxbow Nature Trail that leads from the Heritage Village to the spillway and fi sh ladder area. Take your time and take a short walk through the area. There are over 20 historical plaques to be viewed along the various trails detailing the history of our town and area. During the autumn months, the views from this lofty position are nothing short of spectacular.

Historic Sighting Posts

One of the best places to learn the story

of Minnedosa is the sighting posts located on the east side of the spillway along the Beach Road. (Hwy #262). Here you will fi nd plaques depicting nine specifi c points of interest located in the immediate area. Beginning with “Old Crossing” on the Carlton Trail located in the vicinity of the farm located at the north end of Lake Minnedosa and the North West Fur Trading Post which was located at a spot which is now covered by the lake to the once feared “Norquay Rapids”, since tamed with the construction of the dam and spillway. The sighting posts also point the way to “Tanner’s Crossing” and the building of the railroad in 1883. Since the 1850s Minnedosa has been a very busy community. The Carlton Trail split into three separate trails

east of Minnedosa and there were three distinct river crossings within a few miles of the town. These crossings were: “Old Crossing”, mentioned above, and “Tanner’s Crossing”, located just down the road about half a mile and “Hare’s Crossing”, which was located about fi ve miles westward where the valley turns south towards Rapid City. All three crossings operated at the same time with “Old Crossing” eventually being replaced by the other two. All traffi c ceased along the Carlton Trail and the crossings with the coming of the Manitoba and Northwestern Railway in 1883, the year Minnedosa was incorporated as a town.

Parks andPlaygrounds

Throughout the community, there are a

number of parks and playgrounds for children and families to enjoy. Pictured above is Tanner’s Crossing Park located on the east side of Main Street just south of the bridge. Th e park was created in 1970 by the local Railroad Centennial Committee. Highlights of the park include a decommissioned Canadian Pacifi c engine and caboose as well as a band stand dedicated to the memory of former Minnedosa Mayor and musician, Rick Everett. Downtown Minnedosa also features a number of small corner parks, known as Founders Parks. Th ese parks, a project undertaken by the Chamber of Commerce Business Improvement Committee can be found along Main Street at the corners of 2nd Avenue North, 3rd Avenue North, Armit-age Avenue and 2nd Avenue South (across from the clock

t o w e r ) . Further south on Main Street, is a Founder’s Park dedicated to Minnedosa resident and former Manitoba Premier, the late Walter Weir. Th is one is located at the corner of Main Street and 3rd Avenue S.W. Th e Elks playground can be found at Minnedosa beach, just north of the spillway. Th ere are also playgrounds located at the corners of 4th Avenue and 2nd Street N.W., 8th Avenue and 2nd Street S.W., and along 5th Avenue N.E. between 3rd and 4th Street. Enjoy some time alone or together with family and friends at one our beautiful parks or playgrounds.

Skate the Lake

For one weekend in February, the frozen surface

of Minnedosa Lake becomes home to an annual pond hockey tournament. This event was organized not only as a great opportunity for playing some outdoor hockey, but also as a community fundraiser. Since it’s inception in 2007, Skate the Lake has donated over $21,000 back to the community. Funding recipients have included the local Community Daycare and the Minnedosa Regional Events Centre project. This project will include the development of a new arena, fi tness centre and outdoor sports fi elds at the current fairgrounds along the north hills of town.Skate the Lake is operated with a number of special rules to ensure safe and fair game play for all. Customized nets are used in place of goalies. Multiple thirty minute games are played on

the various rinks cleared on Lake Minnedosa. The fi ve-player teams are encouraged to be creative and come up with their own team name and jerseys. The teams have certainly taken that challenge with a number of unique team names such as the Bad Mother Puckers, and Burgess Quality Dudes (in honour of our local grocery store Burgess Quality Foods). If you happen to be in Minnedosa during that one special weekend in February, be sure to head out to the lake for some entertaining pond hockey. It’s for a good cause!
