Pier Enhancement Project Begins Next Week

Construction on the Pier enhancements is expected to begin next week, and the pier will be closed for approximately two weeks — through to the beginning of December.

Thanks to the leadership of the Summerland Rotary Club and the generosity of community donors, several exciting improvements are being added:

• A slide and water pump for summer fun 🛝
• A ship’s ladder (stairs) for easier access out of the water 🪜
• Permanent lighting along both sides of the pier 💡

• Protective buoys to help safeguard swimmers from motorized watercraft 🛟

New benches, plaques, and a lifesaving device have already been installed, and final touches will include signage on the pier entrance archway.

Please note: the slide will remain closed during the winter months and will reopen in the spring.

We appreciate the community’s patience as we complete these exciting upgrades — and extend a heartfelt thank-you to the Summerland Rotary Club and all the donors who made these enhancements possible!
