The Ripley-Huron Recreation
Department is continuously offering courses and activities throughout
the year. Some courses include First Aid, CPR, and Basic Rescuer
for anyone and Babysitting courses for children. Some programs include
the free parent / Tot /and Senior skating during the Winter, and
for those skateboarders come and try your tricks at the Skate park
beside the Ripley-Huron Community Centre which is free and open
all summer for your daring pleasure.
The Ripley-Huron Community
Centre is located on Queen St in Ripley. The Community Centre includes
the ice surface from October till March which is the home of Ripley
Minor Hockey, Ripley-Huron Skating Club and the Ripley Wolves Senior
Hockey team.
Public Skating
is offered every Saturday and Sunday and is often sponsored
by a local business or Community group so that everyone gets to
skate free while the sponsoring business or organization is recognized
in the newspapers, community calendar, and the Township of Huron-Kinloss
website.
Once the ice is removed
the concrete finished floor is used throughout the summer for various
community dinners, weddings, stag & Does, ball hockey, indoor
soccer and every Monday night shuffleboard is played. The ten shuffleboard
courts are the finest around for a nominal cost of two dollars per
person per night. The Arena floor itself and the ten acres surrounding
this facility is home to the Famous and very successful Ripley Fall
Fair on the Last Saturday in September.
The Community Centre also
has a Hall upstairs with a capacity of 258. This
hall is also used for smaller weddings and socials in addition to
Tai-Bo style fitness classes throughout the fall and winter months.
This hall has a fully serviced kitchen and is fully accessible with
the Elevator. The hall upstairs also has four windows four foot
by eight foot overlooking the ice surface for a fantastic view of
hockey games in the winter months.
The social room
downstairs has a capacity of 101. This room is used regularly
for various community groups but is ideal for the quaint wedding,
family reunion, birthday parties, and anniversaries. This social
room has a state of the art kitchen attached and also services the
functions on the Arena Floor and is outfitted with a ten burner
double oven gas stove, commercial dishwasher, coffee perks, and
enough plates, cutlery, and serving dishes for three hundred of
your closest friends. This room has often been rented along with
the ice surface in the winter months.
