Volunteers Needed: Frank Ryan Park Outdoor Rink

Frank Ryan Park’s community rink can only operate with the support of generous volunteers. Please sign up HERE to help keep the field house open for our friendly neighbourhood skaters! How demanding is this role? The only thing you need to do is show up with a cell phone.

You can choose to play hockey outside or read a book inside. It’s a great activity for new residents to meet your neighbours or for High Schoolers over 16 in need of volunteer hours! Retired? Regularly coming out to skate already? Sounds perfect! Those expressing interest will be contacted with detailed information on scheduling and the limited responsibilities involved. Sign up HERE.

If you have any questions please contact qtncommunity@gmail.com and we will put you in touch with the rink coordinator, Caroline.

Reminder: Carnival this Sunday & we want your feedback on what makes QTN unique!

We are looking forward to seeing you this weekend at the QTNca’s Winter Carnival! The weather looks good and the horses are ready. There will be games for everyone whether you come with your boots, skates, or sled.

Bring your toonies if you would like to enjoy maple taffy, popcorn, or a hot dog. Don’t let the cold scare you off, there will be hot chocolate, coffee, and a fire to roast marshmallows!

Additionally, the recently established planning committee and a City of Ottawa planner will be seeking your input on what makes QTN unique to ensure that future developments enhance the character of our neighbourhood.

Frank Ryan Park rink needs volunteers

Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to help out with the rink this season! We are still in need of several other individuals. If you are willing to help, please sign up HERE!

What’s involved? Volunteers are expected to have a cell phone for emergencies, make note of the number of skaters at the rink, and help shovel during light snowfalls. That’s it! Have a question? Contact your fantastic rink coordinator: James Tompkins.
