    Arenas and locations

    Outdoor public skating

    Prince George is home to a number of outdoor ice skating rinks that are available for public use. Most of these rinks are maintained and operated by local community associations and their volunteers.

    Tentative rink locations

    Outdoor ice rink hydrant training 

    Volunteers of approved community associations must be certified to use a hydrant or standpipe for flooding approved outdoor ice rinks. The following is an on-line certification course for those volunteers. Only persons approved by the City and the community associations may take the course and use a hydrant or standpipe. Register with your local community association before taking this course.

    Once a volunteer completes the course, they must email a copy of their certificate along with their name, contact information, their community association name and rink location to parksandrec@princegeorge.ca. Failure to do so will nullify your certification.  

    NEW: The on-line course must be renewed annually.
