RECREATION PROGRAMS
Public Skating
Public skating is free for everyone. Come out as a family or bring a friend and enjoy an evening skate this season. It is a great way to remain active, beat the winter blues and have fun. There will be music to keep you moving throughout. Here is a list of times for each arena.
Parents and Tots
Parents and tots is free for everyone. This program is geared towards those who are just beginning to skate. It's a great way to go on the ice with your child and teach them how to skate and have fun.
