Our community is nestled in the LaCloche Foothills region of Lake Huron's North Shore, encompassing a large rural area including the communities of Walford, Massey and Webbwood.
Incorporated in July of 1998, the Township of Sables-Spanish Rivers offers all of the convenience of urban living amidst tranquil rural surroundings.
While larger urban centres such as Sudbury and Sault Ste. Marie are only a short drive away, our many local retail and service establishments easily meet the needs of our residents, visitors and businesses alike.
Corey Bouwmeester is the 2012 recipient of the Township of Sables-Spanish Rivers Bursary. This is awarded to a deserving student who resides in the Township and is continuing post-secondary studies.

The Bursary was presented to Corey by Deputy Mayor Patricia Hnatuik. Congratulations Corey!

These events will take place from 10:00 am till 4:00 pm.
The Shelter is waiving the normal adoption fees for the day and will only charge the fee for the municipal license for dogs cats or the cost of spay/neuters and microchips for animals that need to be fixed.
Our previous events have been a resounding success with several dogs and cats being adopted. We have had a steady stream of visitors, many just to take advantage of the Open House and tour the shelter. We will have several beautiful, friendly, playful and healthy fixed and vaccinated adults looking for homes available at the cost of a license.
If you are interested in adopting a pet or would like a tour of the animal shelter you are welcome to attend and enjoy a complimentary barbecue and refreshments.
