Skating Rinks

Yellowbird East Community League has two skating rinks available for use by members:  a recreational skating rink (no hockey sticks or pucks on this rink) and a full-size rink suitable for hockey, ringette, or skating.

Both rinks are available for member use 24 hours/day, weather and ice conditions permitting.

Hockey nets are put out during rink shack hours, but otherwise are stored away (they tend to melt into the ice if left out all the time).

Rink Shack

Change into your skates and warm your toes in the skate shack.  The rink shack will be open with an attendant on duty the following times for the 2017-18 season:

Tuesdays: 5pm – 9pm
Wednesdays: 5pm – 9pm
Thursdays: 5pm – 9pm
Fridays: 5pm – 9pm
Saturdays: 9am – 5pm (rink lights on until 10pm)
Sundays: Closed
Mondays: Closed

Hours depend on weather; during temperatures colder than -20C with windchill, shack will be closed.

Please also note that the shack may be closed for approx. 2 hrs on Saturdays as we accommodate the busy schedule of the rink shack attendants; skate shack staff are hard to find and we value the time they are with us!
