WELCOME!

Shallow and sandy, the East Park Beach is steps away from the campground. Claim a space for your family for the day and use the campground washrooms at your convenience. In hopes that footprints are all that are left behind, please use the garbage and recycling receptacle located across from the beach’s entrance, or visit the East Park Campground Store for a Plastic Pickup Bucket. Considering island cleanliness while creating your memories is appreciated.

“Giving is not just about making a donation.  It is about making a difference.”

        Kathy Calvin

 Through the generosity of community members Cal and Dianne Caywood, and Dave DeLellis, a full-court basketball and tennis court became part of the East Park’s landscape in 2018. The campground’s activity field is also equipped with a baseball diamond and enough open, grassed space for large picnics, star gazing, and kite flying when Pelee breezes blow. Pick-up soccer games foster friendships between community members and those embracing Pelee as their summer playground.

“The power of community to create health is far greater than any physician, clinic or hospital.”
