💬 What Visitors Say
- Visit on weekday mornings (Tuesdays-Fridays 10:15 a.m.–1 p.m.) to avoid crowds; weekends are typically busy, making weekday sessions ideal for beginners and families wanting more space on the ice.
- Load your Easy Card before arriving for practice ice sessions to save time at check-in; it costs $13 with Easy Card versus $16 for drop-in per 60-minute session, offering a $3 savings per visit.
- No reservations needed for public skate sessions—just arrive, pay $7 admission and $4 skate rental at the Skate Rental desk. Plan to arrive early on weekends when the rink is busiest.
- Enroll kids in skating lessons or hockey programs with experienced coaches like Christine (the skating director); reviews highlight coaches are friendly and programs are affordable at $15/class, making it excellent for beginners.
- Bring warm socks and layers—the rink is well-maintained with clean restrooms and parking, but ice rinks require extra warmth. The on-site café (Trenchtown Jerk) is open during afternoon/evening sessions for snacks and meals.
