The rink is open again at noon today after being closed on Dec. 31 and Jan. 1 because of above freezing temperatures.
Reminders to anyone using the rink:
– always close both gates to the hockey rink when you are the last to leave
– always shovel the rink surface before and after using it (skaters and hockey players must shovel if they want to use it)
– when shoveling, do not leave snow piles on the ice. snow piles against the hockey boards must be lifted out of the rink
– stay off the ice when the temperature is above freezing (like yesterday)
– stay off the ice when the “Rink Closed” signs are out (like yesterday)
All of the items above help expedite flooding to create a better ice surface.
