The City has four outdoor rink locations, three of which have staffed warming houses. Staffed sites are open depending on availability of Warming House Attendants and will vary week to week. Weather permitting, warming houses are open, rinks are lit and an attendant is on duty.
Skate rentals are not available at the outdoor rinks.
The Park Maintenance Division maintains the rinks, flooding, and sweeping as needed throughout the skating season.
