Volunteer program

The Town is currently recruiting volunteers to maintain the following rinks: Sunnyridge Park, Madori Park, Greenwood Park, Whelers Mill Park, Vandorf Park, and Gar Lehman Park.

All natural ice rinks are maintained by volunteers (ice rinks are natural ice and subject to meltdown during warmer weather) and to ensure the success of each location, we need a minimum of 2-3 volunteers per site; otherwise, the ice rink won't be able to operate.

Town staff assist as time and weather permit. Town staff will assist volunteers to remove the snow from the rink after significant snowfalls and after Town facility parking lots are clear.

If you're interested, volunteers must attend a training and orientation session before the rink's start-up. This ensures that everyone is familiar with the necessary procedures and safety rules.

Residents wishing to volunteer some time to create and maintain a natural ice rink at the needed locations are asked to contact parksadmin@townofws.ca.

Gather your neighbors, and contribute to making our community a hub of winter fun. Volunteer today and be part of this exciting outdoor activity! The deadline to sign up is December 31.

Ice Rink Guidelines

Specific guidelines for our outdoor rinks include:

  • Maximum of 10 skaters per skating surface (space permitting)
  • No hockey or gameplay allowed.
  • Helmets are highly recommended.
  • Limit your time to 45 minutes should there be people waiting to skate

There must be a minimum of 2-3 volunteers/location or the ice rink won’t be supported
