The outdoor rink on Valens Drive is now open.
Please read the following article for current news on outdoor rinks. This includes the community rink on Valens Drive until further notice.
We hope you enjoy the rink this year and make lots of new winter memories. The outdoor rink on Valens Drive is run completely by volunteers with the Community Association.
SPECIAL THANKS to the following for their hard work getting the rink ready and for keeping it going for the community: volunteer rink coordinator, Janet; volunteer, Shelley; rink maintenance, David; and community volunteers.
RULES AT THE RINK – While enjoying the rink this winter, please follow the posted rules so that everyone, including rink volunteers, can enjoy the rink in a safe manner while following health regulations.
DURING THE PANDEMIC, policies regarding the rink’s operation might change suddenly, so stay up to date with City news and read the posted signs at the rink that will reflect any changes. We will all need to be patient and flexible this winter, in order for the rink to continue to be used by skaters of all ages and abilities.
PUBLIC SKATING TIMES will be supervised and no hockey or shinny is allowed during these times. The community rink must follow provincial health regulations, so this schedule is also subject to change.
See the posters below for all information regarding rink use (this is also posted at the rink).
The 2020-21 Winter newsletter is out.
