Private Ice Rentals

The ice at the Shores and Legacy Recreation Centres can be rented out for private parties/functions, depending on availability. Contact our Community Services Department for availability and rental fees. 

 

Ice Resurfacing 

The final 10 minutes of each scheduled skate will be allotted for the ice to be resurfaced to ensure safety for all patrons. If staff feel the ice is no longer safe for the skaters to be on, then they may choose to resurface the ice sooner.

Resurfacing will start at 1:15pm for Sunday Family Skates to allow sufficient time to prepare the ice for the 1:30pm rental.
