Jan 22 Update: Yeah The rink should be open Monday Jan 23rd. A sign posted on the north rink board will confirm this for you. Jon has prepared both a small skating rink on the sand courts by the west fence as well as the main rink. As skating on a soft ice will interfere with keeping the ice in safe and good condition, your cooperation is greatly appreciated. It is very important that if you try to help by scraping the ice it must be shoveled off the rink (unless you have arranged directly with Jon on this). This moved snow or slush material often sets up or freezes in place and can set rink maintenance back greatly. Please read on for regular rink information.
Malmo residents and their friends are welcome to utilize the ice in a responsible and shared manner. Rules are posted at the rink and in the change room for rink users or their parents to review. It is the responsibility of parents to ensure their
children have the suitable equipment to safely enjoy their hockey and skating activities. Proudly wear your Malmo Plains
Community League skate tag. If you haven't joined yet or forgot to get skate tags with your membership, you can contact Richard Haley, our membership director. (See back page of newsletter for contact info.)
Malmo Community League does not currently reserve ice times or rent the ice facilities to outside groups. However, if you have an ice related activity that requires a rink booking to make it happen, give us a call. A great example of this is the Winter Carnival.
Rink Hours (change room open)
Mon to Fri 3-9 pm,
Weekends & Holidays 9 am-9 pm
*In adverse weather or poor ice conditions (temp below -20 C) rink may be closed.
*When change room closed and rink lights off, the rink is
closed. Notification signs from our rink manager may be
posted on the rink.
*If you scrape the ice yourself please ensure you shovel it
off the rink because it can set up like concrete. This
greatly interferes with our rink master's (Jon Norman)
efforts to provide us with a good and safe ice surface.
*Please report any rink facility damage. (Contact phone number 780 438-1295, also at back of newsletter).
