Public Skating

Home/Exploring/Recreation and Programs/Public Skating

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.
