The Lac Pelletier Regional Park Board Authority (the “Board Authority”) was established by an Order in Council under the Saskatchewan Regional Park Act in 1964. The Board Authority works closely with the founding Rural Municipalities (RMS) and community volunteers to achieve their short and long term goals for the Park. The Park’s mandate is to provide opportunities for active participation in outdoor recreational activities, promoting respect of all people and our natural resources, promoting cooperation in working together to achieve common goals through volunteerism and an understanding of the history and contribution of settlers to the region.
Two representatives (members) may be appointed by each of the founding RMs, Cities, Towns and Villages. The executive board is elected from the appointed representatives, including LPRP members at large, who are nominated by the current board. Members at large come from the Lac Pelletier Regional Park community and may not exceed more than 40% of the eligible members. The current board members are:
