About Stoney Lake Community Association

The Stoney Lake Community Association is a volunteer group at Stoney Lake, in the County of St. Paul near Elk Point. Volunteers run the grounds and events, giving residents, campers, and visitors a place to gather. The association’s grounds include a campground with lake access and arena space, and the group’s annual rodeo weekend brings riders and spectators for rodeo events, a junior rodeo, a bean bag tournament, a beer fest, and a Sunday pancake breakfast.

MCSnet sponsors a free public Wi-Fi hotspot at the Stoney Lake Community Association grounds, so members, campers, and rodeo weekend crowds can get online without depending on cell signal, which is thin this far off the highway. The hotspot is separate from the County of St. Paul’s own Stoney Lake Campground, a different site run by the County, which also carries an MCSnet sponsored connection.

Where: 8106 Township Road 563A, Stoney Lake, Alberta.

Why Free Wi-Fi Here Matters

Stoney Lake sits well off the highway grid, and cell coverage around the lake can be unreliable. A free, encrypted Wi-Fi connection at the community association grounds means volunteers organizing an event, campers checking the weather, and rodeo weekend visitors trying to find their group can all get online without hunting for a signal.

MCSnet sponsors this hotspot as part of its community partnership program across rural Alberta. Browse the full hotspot directory, or read about internet across County of St. Paul.
