The Lion’s Park Campground is located between the Birch Hills Golf Course and Lions Ball Park. There are six electrified sites built up on gravel pads. The power service can accommodate a few more units if groups are willing to share power access and gravel pads. All camping units (excluding tents) and associated vehicles must be positioned on the gravel pads. The electrical service is 50 amps, and available on six pedestals strategically located between each site. Each pedestal can accommodate 15, 30 or 50 amp plugs. Non electrical sites are also available on the North West side of the sportsground property.
All six sites come complete with picnic table, pole barbeque, water service and sewage dumps. An ample overflow area is available where tents can set up on the grass. No additional services are available in this area.
Firewood is provided for Sportsground users. This wood must be used on site and cannot be removed from the property. There is also one large group fire pit which is available to all sportsground patrons. It is located under the light directly North of site 6.
Large trash bins are located East of the washrooms. In addition garbage cans are strategically located in the campground and around the adjacent sportsgrounds. There is one washroom building with two separate bathrooms. Each bathroom has a toilet and sink with cold running water, paper towel, and toilet paper.
