  • Band Administrator the Organization
    Band Administrator The Organization Saugeen First Nation (SFN) is an Ojibway community found on the shores of Lake Huron at the base of the Bruce Peninsula, two miles northeast of Southampton and approximately eighteen miles west of Owen Sound, Ontario. South Sauble Beach Park, renowned for its breathtaking sunsets, is known for its shallow, sandy beach. It provides the backdrop for the healthy active lifestyle of this area—a popular destination for hiking, fishing, and swimming. SFN’s administration team manages twenty-one departments to holistically serve its community and provides both seasonal and year-round employment for 150 staff. SFN has a population of approximately 1,857 members, with nearly half living on reserve. They prioritize social development and offer a great amount of training and education opportunities for their members. The Lands, Fisheries, Roads, and Water Departments ensure the environment is managed appropriately and according to community protocols and policies. SFN is a vibrant and thriving community deeply rooted in culture and tradition. They have fostered exceptional relationships and have made agreements and working relationships with international partners and neighbouring communities. They are leading the way in the energy sector by being successful stewards of their traditional territory. To enhance their culture and member services, the community is creating new and innovative community infrastructure. SFN is currently upgrading its signature stone masonry amphitheatre, which is situated next to a significant historical site and is visited by thousands of people each year. Once complete, the updated amphitheatre will be a one-of-a-kind, world-class facility. In addition, the administrative headquarters will be moving to a brand-new government building on reserve in just a couple of months.
