Watrous and Manitou Beach Resort Ancient gathering traditions continue to branch out in modern times By Sheila Bautz For L-P Specialty Products
“Danceland is an original dance hall,” said Manz. “They also have catering facilities right on site. Basically, the area of the dance floor itself is 5,000 square feet. There’s potential there for large gatherings for numerous occasions.”

“Our community is equipped to accommodate all events,” said Manz. “Room prices in places like Saskatoon have grown substantially, and groups can still meet in rural Saskatchewan and have a first-class type of experience. Our other drawing is the indoor mineral spa and healing waters, and everything else that has made this place so famous.”
In addition, for winter events, the hockey and curling rinks are available. The community continues to create a convention-meeting campaign to establish a heightened level of meeting resources. As such, a direct mailing campaign to businesses in major centers is planned. The mailing list will include businesses and agencies with offices in multiple locations, such as government agencies, sports and recreational groups, and other organizations of various natures.

“Our convention and meeting website showcases everything you need to know to plan your next event: the facility rental information, the sizes, the capacity for each one, information about our accommodations from small hotels/motels to bed and breakfasts to our campgrounds,” said Manz. “It also details our caterers and our restaurants that can host various meal functions and menus for different clients.”

“There is also our Manitou Beach golf course that has a tournament lounge off the back of the clubhouse with an outdoor patio, which provides both indoor and outdoor accommodations,” said Manz. “We can host tournaments where you can have about 75 people in it with barbecues and catering options.”
The beautiful town and beach are situated on the shores of its infamous healing waters. The water from Little Manitou Lake has therapeutic properties with a high mineral content, which comes from lake-bottom springs. The lake has become known as Canada’s Dead Sea due to the mineral content. As such, spas and therapeutic treatments are available, as well — creating an attractive combination for booking business and personal events while seeking balance with rejuvenation.

The Manitou District Regional Park, located at Manitou Beach, is the second-largest regional park and campground in the province. Two different camp kitchens are available and can host up to 100 people, which is perfect for summer family reunions. The camp kitchens book a year in advance for weekend gatherings, as there is a family reunion almost every weekend at the park.
Over the past three years, the popular Manitou Springs Resort and Mineral Spa underwent an extensive renovation. The exterior and entire interior of the spa and hotel rooms — from top to bottom — was refreshed with extensive upgrades. There are 102 hotel rooms, and the resort has a capacity of hosting more than 180 patrons. Popular meeting rooms include the Manitou Room with a capacity of 150, the Renown Room with a capacity of 50 and the Venn Room with a capacity of 12.

In addition, Watrous offers various options as gathering locations. The Heritage Room can host groups consisting of 80 people — the same is true of the Kinsmen Club Room. Seasonal options include the Curling Rink Lounge with a capacity of 200 patrons. The high school gym is also available, with a capacity of 500. There is also a Village Hall at Manitou Beach with a capacity of 109 patrons.
With the array of facilities Watrous and area has to offer, there is a combined total of approximately 50,000 square feet of potential meeting space for groups and organizations seeking a centrally located spot in the province. Watrous and Manitou Beach are approximately two hours’ driving distance for 80 per cent of the province’s population.

“It’s perfect for dances or for a wedding, concert, cabaret or large event,” said Manz.
In the past, people discovered the area through family and friends or while on vacation. As a result, many decided the area was a great place to bring their colleagues. Although hosting events, including provincial events, is commonplace, the community’s goal is to expand and broaden this aspect.
