The Rural Municipality of Dauphin, Manitoba, is holding a lottery to decide who will get a seasonal camping spot for the 2026 season. The municipality announced the draw on March 12, 2026, to give residents and visitors a fair chance at securing a site for the upcoming summer.
The lottery covers seasonal lots at two popular local spots managed by the municipality: Stoney Point Beach and Sifton Beach. Because these campgrounds are often in high demand, local officials use a draw to make sure everyone has an equal opportunity to rent a space.
By using a structured lottery process, the municipality can manage the limited number of spots available at these lakeside locations. This system helps prevent a first-come, first-served rush and ensures that the selection process is open and transparent for all applicants.
The Rural Municipality of Dauphin Council and Administrative Office manages the rules and the actual drawing of names for the spots. This annual event is a key step for local campers who want to set up a permanent base at the beach for the entire 2026 camping season.
