This large open space is known as Daly’s Field and still hosts summer community events such as Firemen’s Day as well as some of Metis Beach School’s sports activities. For many years, an annual “Metis Derby” was organized, with the summer residents pitting their skills against those of the permanent Metis residents. The competition would take place over an August weekend with one day for baseball on Daly’s field and one day for golf at the Cascade Golf & Tennis Club on MacNider Road.
