There is no rink without Tim.

Ice GOAT
Ice Master
Our Fearless Flooder

He has a lot of names.

And while it’s true- it takes a lot of hands on deck, a lot of shovels, a lot of meetings, a lot of donations- we would not have ice if it wasn’t for Tim.

So if you see him out and about know that he is the reason we’ve been able to forge ahead and have ice this year.

He’s put in countless hours and painstakingly done flood after flood for our rink.

We appreciate you so much!!!

To every single person who continues to sign up to assist with shovelling and assist Tim- THANK YOU!!!!

The community spirit has been amazing ❤️🏒⛸️🧊

Red means closed 🥺. Boooooo!!

In an effort to preserve what ice we have, the warming weather and the snowfall- we are closing the rink this week.

If I gets cold an again- then we will continue to try and make ice 🥅🏒🧊.

It’s been wonderful to see everybody enjoying the rink!

Char has been supporting us since day one!! Last year when we had been hopeful we would get ice she heard our desperate plea and made signs.

This year , again without hesitation, she made 8 more signs! They are posted all over the rink thanks to her generous donation.
