Amazing arena. The ice almost always feel great to skate on. They have spacious stands. Although the dressing rooms are on the smaller side, it's possible to fit a team on 17 in there, unlike some arenas (cough cough john mlacak). For the penalty boxes, I recommend to not slam it during the middle of a game after getting a bad penalty because they are extremely heavy and loud.

  • Robin Sagriff

Older arena, so change rooms are smaller, and when it's hot out, the humidity control inside is not well managed, and it takes a while for the water on surface of ice to freeze after Zamboni is done its pass. But, it's got a small canteen, and they've made some small improvements, so they're trying. I play there once a week.

  • Luke Bowlby

Great rink. Pretty cold in the winters but other than that it's fine. Dressing rooms are on the small side. Has a canteen with kinda expensive food, but it's pretty good. The gentleman working there a Has run it well. Stands are nice and open, even Has a standing area with tables. Great rink.

  • S E

Great and beautiful Arena. One of my favourite ones. Always clean and very bright. The flooring in the lobby made of blades-friendly materials, so you can leave the ice with the skates on and go to washroom or cafe-kiosk thru the lobby. Ice is always in superb condition. Just beauty.

  • Michael

This is a great indoor arena located behind the community high school. The cost is only $3 (Jan 2018) which makes it a nice low cost way to spend time with the kids. The ice is nicely maintained, and the seating area, for non skaters, is very clean.

  • Brett Woods

Its an older rink tucked into a residential neighbourhood, so it requires direction to find the first time. Otherwise its a good spot with lots of seating. The heaters don't always work in the stands, but there is space to stand in the lobby.

  • Samuel B.

Great for hockey and other sports. However the concession stand and vending machines are not open very often, but when they are, it's not at a very accessible time. Keep that in mind when coming, bring food.

  • Rob Hemmerich

Similar vintage and layout to Darwin (aka Merivale) arena. Small foyer. Good stands. Parking lot on the small size. Snack bar. One rink. Dressing rooms down stairs.

  • rakaraven

Great surface for Lacrosse, ample parking. The snack shop has a huge variety of goodies and the gentleman who runs it is friendly and fun.

  • Pablos Tacobello

The arena is very nice! The one ice driver doesn’t know much! The one guy is great he still allows the 10 min extra at end of night!
