The Municipality of Greenstone offers a variety of recreation programs for all ages and abilities. Whether you're looking to try shinny hockey, soccer or tee ball, we've got a program for you. We also offer skating and swimming lessons.

RECREATION PROGRAMS

Public Skating

Public skating is free for everyone. Come out as a family or bring a friend and enjoy an evening skate this season. It is a great way to remain active, beat the winter blues and have fun. There will be music to keep you moving throughout. Here is a list of times for each arena.

Parents and Tots

Parents and tots is free for everyone. This program is geared towards those who are just beginning to skate. It's a great way to go on the ice with your child and teach them how to skate and have fun. Skatemates will be available which help your child skate as it stabilizes them and gets them used to standing on the ice with skates. Here is a list of times for each arena.

Shinny

Shinny is for those who want to improve their hockey skills outside of minor hockey. It's a great way to burn some energy and have fun with your friends.

Yearly shinny passes can only be purchased at your local ward office for $67.24. Daily passes can only be purchased at the arenas for $5.64 per skate.

Prior to stepping on the ice, you will need to fill out a Code of Conduct form which must be signed by an adult.

Here is a list of times for each arena.
