Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Nov 2024).
Boards and seasonal lights make this a spot for evening pickup hockey, with the puddle pad alongside for anyone who'd rather just skate laps. There's no building here at all, so plan to lace up in the car and head home when you're done. Volunteers from the neighbourhood keep the ice up, which means conditions follow the weather and whenever they last had a chance to flood.
