We are pleased to announce the addition of a 40' x 80' natural outdoor ice rink on campus for the winter months. We look forward to welcoming students, staff, and faculty to make use of this rink for recreation and wellness opportunities in the near future.
Skates are not available for borrowing or rental. All skaters must bring their own skates as well as any personal equipment they wish to use (helmets, shin guards, sticks, pucks, etc.). Changerooms and lockers are available in the Simcoe Hall washrooms for storage of skates and other personal belongings for day use only.
Special thanks to First Line Rinks for helping us bring this exciting addition to our campus!
