Outdoor Ice Rinks

Outdoor winter ice rinks in Whitchurch-Stouffville are at the mercy of the weather.  When weather conditions permit, volunteers and Town staff will build and maintain ice rinks at the following locations:

Outdoor Rink Locations:

• Gar Lehman Park
• Greenwood Park

Volunteers Needed:

Get involved in your community and volunteer to assist with outdoor ice rink maintenance. There are several locations to choose from, so find one in your neighbourhood... this is a great opportunity to get outside, get to know your neighbours and give back to the community.


Call 905-640-1910 ext. 2278 for more information.

Locations:  Gar Lehman Park and Greenwood Park

All natural ice rinks are maintained by volunteers (ice rinks are natural ice and subject to melt down during warmer weather).

Town staff assist as time and weather permit.

Town staff will assist volunteers to remove the snow from the rink after significant snowfalls and after Town facility parking lots have been cleared.

Ice Rink Guidelines

There must be a minimum of 5 volunteers/location or ice rink won’t be supported

Volunteers must be available to attend a training and orientation session prior to start-up of the rink

Established procedures and safety rules must be followed at all times

Residents wishing to volunteer some time to create and maintain a natural ice rink at any of these locations is asked to contact Chris Sheridan – Acting Parks Leadhand  at     chris.sheridan@townofws.ca by December 12, 2019.

Interest in the creation of an outdoor natural ice rink does not guarantee the Town’s support if there are less than 5 volunteers willing to contribute to its success.
