From 1949 until roughly the early 1980s, Sportsman's Island was a spot for picnics, weddings, company outings, chicken dinners and the annual smelt fry put on by the old St. Cloud Community ...

But one of the islands — the one commonly known as Sportsman Island, located near the St. Cloud Country Club — is owned by the Country Club. That island was used as a park for a number of years.

Police say the body of a St. Cloud woman who had gone missing Thursday was found Sunday ... The body was found just past 11 a.m. Sunday on the west bank of the river by Sportsman’s Island Road.
