Celebrating 50 Years at Desert Lake
You are invited to participate in “50 Years, 50 Stories”!
As the Desert Lake Property Owners’ Association celebrates its 50th anniversary, we’re inviting our community to help tell the story of the lake we all love.
This year, we’re launching a special initiative:
“50 Years, 50 Stories”
A community-driven celebration of the moments, memories, and traditions that have shaped life on Desert Lake.
📸 How to Participate
We invite you to share your stories directly in our private Facebook group:
Join the conversation here:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/desertlakelife
Once inside, simply post:
- A favourite photo (past or present)
- A short story, memory, or reflection
- Be sure to include the year of the photo/memory
You might share:
- Your very first summer at the lake
- A favourite dock moment
- A family tradition
- A quiet memory that captures what Desert Lake means to you
Use the hashtag: #DesertLake50Stories
Why We’re Doing This
This initiative is about more than storytelling—it’s about connection.
By sharing your memories, you’ll help create a living archive of Desert Lake life—one that reflects the people, families, and experiences that define our community.
Throughout the summer, we’ll highlight select stories and, later this season, feature a curated collection at our Annual General Meeting on August 9th.
Be Part of the Story
Whether you’ve been here for decades or just a few seasons, your story is part of Desert Lake’s history.
We look forward to reading your memories—and celebrating 50 years together.
Not on Facebook?
We know not everyone uses Facebook. If you’d still like to participate, you can email your story and photo to us, and we’ll share it on your behalf. Email: jamie@desertlakelife.ca
