The Harrison Park Good Cheer Outdoor Rink is open for the season! Just remember the "HOSE" rule - Hockey on Odd days, Skating on Even days. Please respect the rules and your fellow users. Visit our Facebook page for updates on when the rink is closed due to mild weather.
We have recreation ice time available in three NHL sized arenas:
- Julie McArthur Regional Recreation Centre
- Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre (J.D. McArthur Arena)
From April until the end of August, there is only one ice pad available (Rink A / West Rink at the Julie McArthur Regional Recreation Centre).
Both of these facilities are Nut-Aware Facilities. More information about the City's Anaphylaxis Policy and what Nut-Aware means can be found by clicking here.
Please note that the facilities are closed on Christmas Day (December 25th) and New Year's Day (January 1st).
*Single, Family and Adult/Shinney Skating Winter Memberships can be purchased at City Hall (located at 808 2nd Avenue East), the Bayshore Community Centre, and the Julie McArthur Regional Recreation Centre. Family Skating Memberships are for immediate family only up to a maximum of five (5) people. All prices listed below include HST.
