Book excerpt: The Saskatchewan regional park system results from a partnership between the provincial government, the regions, and individual communities. This publication begins with a brief history of the system and then describes each of the over 100 regional parks, arranged by tourism region. Information provided includes park name, address, and telephone number; name of ecoregion in which the park is situated; access and admission fees; services provided; local history; recreational facilities and concessions, if any, available at the park; special events, if any; and description of camp sites, if applicable. The final sections of the publication include: a classified list of parks by the type of amenity they offer; a description of Saskatchewan ecoregions, with lists of parks in each, if any; a park name index; and a table summarizing services at each park.
