Admission Prices for Hockey/Ringette

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 for the Ultimate Birthday party at a very reasonable rate.
