Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Feb 2019).
A boarded rink with permanent lights plus a puddle surface alongside means hockey and free skating can happen at the same time, well into the evening, with someone on site keeping an eye on things. The fieldhouse gives you somewhere to lace up and change, though there's no washroom, so plan around that. Volunteers look after the ice here,
