My office will be holding a free public skate for residents tomorrow, Friday March 17th, at the Belltown Dome from 4pm to 6pm. This is in celebration of the March Break week and St Patrick’s Day. We encourage everyone to wear something green! There will be free hot chocolate and coffee.
Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult 18 years and older. Children 10 years and under are required to wear a CSA-certified hockey helmet. We recommend that all skaters (especially new skaters) wear a CSA-certified hockey helmet. Bicycle, ski and snow sport helmets are not permitted. Please note that for safety reasons there is a capacity limit of 60 people on the ice at one time. Attendants will be on hand to ensure that this is followed so that everyone can have fun and enjoy some skating time!
As there is an on ice capacity of 60 people, we ask that if you are planning to attend to please send us an email at bayward@ottawa.ca with the subject line “Skate”. My team and I are looking forward to sharing this time with residents!
