Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Feb 2019).

Boards, lights and a volunteer crew keeping the ice up mean this one works for evening pickup hockey, with a puddle rink alongside for anyone who'd rather skate away from the pucks. The community centre next door covers washrooms and a place to lace up, and there's usually someone supervising — though the site isn't wheelchair accessible.
