The City of Prince George is launching new and revised skating programs this year, following a community survey.
251 people took the survey earlier this year, with participants highlighting a lack of public skating sessions, and not enough drop-in hockey sessions while also being too early.
The City will be adding an additional public skating session on Monday evenings from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at the Elksentre in November, and extended the three existing public skating times to two hours.
It also added drop-in hockey sessions on Sundays from 2:45 to 4:15 p.m. at Kopar Memorial Arena, and on Mondays from 9:15 to 10:45 p.m. at the Elksentre in November.
Also starting in November, YMCA BC will be running parent and tot skates at Kin II and stick and puck at Kopar Memorial Arena.
The parent and tot skate will be Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m., and stick and puck on Fridays from 3:30 to 4:45 p.m. (except on Spruce Kings games days) and Sundays from 6:15 to 7:45 a.m..
More information can be found on the City’s website here.
