The Texada Island Recreation Commission is a volunteer board made up of Texada residents that works with the Powell River Regional District to manage recreational facilities on Texada. The Commission also considers Grant in Aid requests from local recreation groups. Thanks to volunteer efforts and the Island’s industrial past it has a relatively large number of recreational facilities to manage. These include the Texada Island Community Hall, the Gillies Bay tennis courts, Smithson Park and the Gillies Bay Ball Field and Farmers Market area. Recent acquisitions are Erikson Beach, the Van Anda Cove Property and the Old School.
