How do I find out if there is any ice time available for a game or practise?
Inquire with arena staff or contact the Town Office.
Sometimes there is public skating added during the weekend. Why? And how do I find out?
When the minor hockey teams are out of town for games, that often leaves some time for private rentals. If the ice doesn’t get rented, the Town will add FREE public skating. You can find out if there are any additional weekend public skating times by phoning the arena at (403) 854-4177, view the Town of Hanna event calendar on our website, or check our Facebook page at Facebook.com/HannaTown
There is often extra public skating added during school vacation such as Christmas Break.
