Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Dec 2021).

Two open ice surfaces without boards, kept up by volunteers from the neighbourhood — better suited to free skating and puck-free laps than a boards game. Permanent lights mean you can come out after dark, but with no washroom, change space or supervision on site, lace up at home and plan a short visit.
