Quarterly Update
Dear Rinks Customers and Families,
Thank you for your patience during this difficult time. Our top priority remains the health and safety of our employees and guests. We continue to work on our re-opening protocols and updating the buildings accordingly. While we still don’t have word on timing for re-opening, we will be ready as soon as we get the go-ahead. During this down time we’ve been busy and excited about our new Virtual Hockey Training as part of our Hockey at Home program. View more Hockey at Home content in this quarter's newsletter and below!
We look forward to welcoming everyone back to The Rinks & Great Park Ice as soon as possible
Be safe, stay well.
Rick Hutchinson, Director of Hockey

Virtual Training Sessions
The Rinks & Great Park Zoom Virtual Hockey Training allows players to stay on top of their game and continue to stay active away from the rink. Just because we are not at the rink, doesn’t mean we can’t stay on top of our game. Offering this online virtual training is a great option to stay connected with your coaches, teams and instructors. We will continue to offer these online sessions as we move forward and adjust programming as needed.
