Free Public Wi-Fi Across Boyle

Boyle is a village on Highway 63 in Athabasca County, home to the Alberta-Pacific Forest Industries pulp mill and a compact downtown that anchors the surrounding farms, acreages, and lake communities. Minor hockey, curling leagues, and the events that fill the Community Centre through the year all run through a small cluster of buildings near the highway, while families with cabins at North Buck Lake split their time between the village and the water. The Wildberry Festival and the Hell on Hooves rodeo bring even more people through town over the summer, and every one of those visitors passes through the same small set of community buildings.

MCSnet sponsors free public Wi-Fi at four venues serving the Boyle area: the Boyle Arena, the Boyle Community Centre, the Boyle & District Curling Club, and the Blue Heron Estates Community League on North Buck Lake. Every hotspot uses the same network name and password, so a device that connects at one venue remembers it at the rest, whether that is a rink-side seat at the arena, a council meeting at the Community Centre, or a weekend at the lake.
