Probably any outdoor rink that has a volunteer base in place - no volunteers equals no outdoor ice in most communities.

Anyone up for an xmas day/boxing day shinny game?

I played at marda loop last year on boxing day. Beers, tunes, hockey, was great.

[adamc]

Potato quality, sorry.

Anyone playing today?

[adamc]

Going to marda loop with a cooler of brewskis and a portable speaker and hoping people show up.

Probably just after noon. Play the day away and then go watch Canada's Juniors kick some ass at 1410 for 6pm.

Oh damn. I just woke up with a wicked hangover. Too late I guess lol.

who's up for today? anyone wanna meet up in the southside?

[adamc]

Played for 5 hours straight at marda loop today, not going to be able to walk tomorrow.

Perfect day for some outdoor puck though.

I got out a few times over the holidays as well, it was awesome until this stupid cold weather ruined it.

bumping up instead of starting a new thread (maybe a mod can change it to Outdoor Rink Thread)

With the cooler weather coming our way I'm looking forward to getting out to the ODR's around town. If you local rink is getting up and running or your looking to gather up some people for a game post it here!

With the winter season being predicted to be mild and dry, I am curious to see what the conditions of outdoor rinks will be this year. either way I look forward to getting out!

I hear Copperfeild has a great volunteer outdoor rink. I will try to check out most of the rinks in southern Calgary this year.

Is there anywhere holding an open skate tonight? Olympic Oval is closed with the speedskating championships for the next few days

because of how bad its been, I've been paying $5 to play at cranston where they have a chiller.

I believe new brighton has chillers as well, but I don't think is open to public.

^Do know if you have to pay the $5 if you live in Cranston?
