Online Schedules
Our web schedules are updated as often as possible and are an excellent way of finding out what's going at our recreation facilities. You can check to see when your team is on the ice or find out which teams are using on the ball diamonds. They're also a handy way to look for open ice pad, soccer field and ball diamond times, or to find a suitable rental opportunity in the auditorium and meeting area bookings. The arena is a very busy facility and finding an open ice time in the evening or on weekends is a relatively rare event. But you can significantly improve your chances by using our web schedule often. The ball diamonds are also well used, however there are more opportunities to find openings. Again, our schedule can help you accomplish that.
