Any facility is an asset, an outdoor skating rink would be fantastic in Fernie. I am sure it would get a lot of support, however with the humungous amounts of snow that fall here (bring it on Griz baby!!!) I am sure there would be a hefty maintainance bill to take care of. I know the City are trying to find suitable uses for their surplus dollars, so I think this would be a great time to suggest it to them.

As for public skating, Fernie Leisure Services prints a whole booklet of timetables for the Aquatic Centre, Arena, Arts Station and other events. I know you can get them from the Aquatic Centre, and probably also from the City as well as the other venues.

At the Arena there’s public skating on Wednesday evening and Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons throught the holidays. There’s also Shinny Mon-Fri for various agegroups and Parent and Tot skating on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

Happy skating!
