Drop your name below if you are interested or contact Mimi at the NCW (3818). Contacts will be made over the next couple of weeks
Anyone looking to take a Hockey Coaching Course, we are in the process of confirming a Coach 2 course with Hockey Canada *virtual delivery. Note: you do not need the Coach 1 to complete the Coach 2. Look out for upcoming confirmation dates

Hello everyone,

On behalf of the rink committee we apologize for not having the rink up and running at this point. Only a couple of volunteers and I stress volunteers know how to operate the chiller, clear and flood the rink. This makes it difficult when mandatory quarantines are in place and others are away from the community. In the past, we have tried to host training programs and volunteer meetings but unfortunately there was no active participation.

The chiller unit is down at the moment and is in the process of getting serviced. Up until the start of this week the weather was not in our favour. Now that the cold weather is here we are trying to put something into place.

Again lots of pieces need to be put together in order for the rink to be operational and this includes the health and safety of our community. With Covid unfortunately being present in the community it becomes paramount to ensure that everyone’s health is at the forefront.

Our volunteers want the rink up and running just as much as the youth that are using it, maybe even more. All the volunteers involved take pride in the ice rink and want nothing more but to see the community on it.

Please be patient as we work through these obstacles and try to get ice on the rink.

Miigwetch,
