Hey residents!

Grab those hockey sticks, pucks and sharpened skates to the Beach Club on one of our lake hockey rinks, because Lake Skating Surfaces are now OPEN today, December 13, 2022.

Lake surfaces include our 3 (that’s right THREE) hockey rinks and pleasure rink/loop! A friendly reminder that hockey sticks or pucks are NOT PERMITTED on the Jellybean rink or Pleasure rink/loop.

Please note that in the event of a snowfall, our staff will work as quickly as possible to clear the surfaces! In cases where maintenance or snow removal must occur, we may have to ask you to move to another surface. The daily rink opening schedule will look like the following:

10:15am Lake Hockey Rink 3

At this time there is no capacity on the current rinks that are open. Note that the rinks are not available for skating prior to their opening times above, and you may be asked to leave the rink.

During any days where temperatures are above 0 degrees and our ice surfaces have the potential to get damaged due to warmer weather, restrictions could be in place on rink use to keep our surfaces in the best condition possible. The SSRA reserves the right to close rinks on short notice if deemed ice surfaces are not safe.

Head on down to the Beach Club and check out the great job our Parks Team has done this winter! We can’t wait to see you there!
