The recent cold snap in Metro Vancouver has painted the neighbourhoods white, allowed some locals to play ice hockey on residential streets and created four temporary ice rinks.

Town Centre Park

Grab your skates! There’s a new temporary ice rink at Town Centre Park in Coquitlam. It’s located on the sports court at the park, just off Trevor Wingrove Way. It was created by Coquitlam Fire Rescue crew and Recreation staff. The ice surface is similar to that of a lake but not as smooth as an indoor rink.

 

Trout Lake

Thousands of people skating on #TroutLake today! Come on out and join the numerous hockey games on the ice :)
