Welcome to the Boyle Community Profile

Community Lifestyle

Recreation

The Village of Boyle is proud of all it has to offer its residents with respect to recreation and community facilities.

Our Arena (Millview Recreation Complex) was recently upgraded and now boasts a beautiful mezzanine and viewing area where people can sit comfortably and watch the activities on the ice surface. Boyle has a strong commitment to its youth and this is shown by the busy schedules kept by Boyle Minor Hockey. We also have an active "oldtimers" hockey team and other recreational hockey opportunities.

The Boyle Curling Club is very proud of its 3 sheet facility which is connected by way of a pedway to our Arena. A full kitchen facility is found on the main level, and the mezzanine and viewing area has an area for snacks and refreshments. The Curling Club hosts a Men's Bonspiel, Ladies Bonspiel and a Mixed Bonspiel every year and is kept busy with league play in between.

Summer recreation within the Village includes ball diamonds, skateboard park, and tennis courts. For outdoor enthusiats one doesn't have to travel far to enjoy all that our area has to offer. Swimming, boating, water skiing, trail riding, bike and hiking paths and camping facilities are available at Long Lake Provincial Park, Hope Lake, Skeleton Lake and North Buck Lake, all just a short drive from town. Flat lake, located just a few miles west of the Village, offers some of the best bird watching in Alberta. If golf is your game, you can enjoy a round at Skeleton Lake Golf Course, or at Long Lake Golf Course each of which are just a few minutes drive from town.

Winter offers opportunites for ice fishing, cross country and downhill skiing and snowmobile rallies within the immediate area, and with our Arena and Curling Rink always busy one never has to travel far to find activities.
