Outdoor Rinks and Ponds
Outdoor rinks, monitored by city staff, are typically open from December to March, are weather dependent, and rely on volunteers through the Adopt-a-Rink program to assist in making these spaces operational. Outdoor rinks give residents an economical option for fun recreational winter activities.
The ice conditions listed on the map are updated weekly, but residents should check signage at the skating surface location for more information before using the ice. Do not skate on the ponds unless they are a minimum six (6) inches in thickness.
Adopt-a-Rink program
Our outdoor rinks rely on volunteers to make these spaces operational.
We supply:
- Shovels, chippers, hoses
- Training
- Some snow removal
We ask:
- Build ice
- Shovel when necessary
- Flood when necessary
Please note that city staff will assist with some snow removal, dependent on the amount, once trails are cleared.
