Seasonal campground bookings in Saskatchewan start Wednesday

People in Saskatchewan dreaming of warmer weather can start planning for summer this week.

Campers interested in longer stays can apply for seasonal summer campsites starting Wednesday.

The province says those sites are in high demand and are allocated via a lottery system, with this year’s draw to take place on Monday, Feb. 5.

People will be able to book spots in their favourite provincial parks starting April 9.

Sites at Blackstrap and Pike Lake will be the first up for grabs — with other sites gradually added though April 20.
