Outdoor skating season is starting again, and our incredible community volunteers work very hard all winter to prepare and maintain the local ice surfaces. Keep up with the latest ice quality and rink status details using the linked image above.
This year, the rinks will have new change benches, and in December the city has installed an indoor changing room next to the rink. The ice surfaces at Jeanne d’Arc Park are some of the best maintained in the city, and that is thanks to the tireless work of our volunteers.
