Please stay off the ice on Wascana Lake and Wascana Creek. Although the ice may look safe – it isn’t. Children should be warned about the dangers of thin ice. Keep children away from lakes, ditches and creeks. Anyone walking their dog in Wascana Centre is asked to keep it on a leash. If your dog runs onto the ice, do not attempt to rescue it as you will be putting yourself in danger.
As part of the "Big Dig" Wascana Lake revitalization project, under water aeration systems were put in place to keep the lake and its water environment alive. From the surface the ice may appear fine, but it could be very thin in spots.
If you see anyone, especially children, playing on the ice or near dangerous water, call the Regina Police Service at 306-777-6500. In an emergency call 911.
