Ice Rental Terms & Conditions
Payment is due at the time of booking; we do not place any holds on any ice time. Rental permits/contracts are issued as confirmation of a booking, and outline the Terms of Use. Permits must be signed and submitted to staff.
Dressing rooms will be assigned to renters when they arrive; no food or drink is permitted in the dressing rooms, on the benches, or on the ice. Concessions are available at each arena; operating hours cannot be guaranteed to be open during a rental.
Users cannot be on the ice with regular footwear or with strollers; only skates and appropriate support equipment are allowed on the ice. Renters can request nets to be put out by staff.
Minimum “one hour” rentals are required; however, this is booked on 50-minutes of actual skate time to allow for ice flooding between rentals.
View the Community Room & Halls webpage for details on booking an arena room with the ice.
