Outdoor COVERED Ball Hockey Rinks
Make more outdoor covered ice rinks / ball hockey rinks throughout Barrie (similar to Thornton's). We are a hockey town, let's give kids and families a way to get out and enjoy the rinks no matter the weather.

This is needed throughout Barrie, in multiple locations that are easily accessible to kids in the communities in which they are located.

A covered rink would be a great asset to the city of Barrie. So many puck and ice times are full to capacity. Not all.kids get a ride to the facilities. This would allow many more people access to a great form of exercise and fun. It's long overdue

Our youth needs things to do, places to go, kept busy learning and growing. We need more outdoor activities where they can build relationships and be positive active members of our community.

Having more rinks is a must! Kids these days are infactuated with technology, and although tecnological skills are helpful in todays society; kids social, athetic, communucation and collaboration skills lack horribly. These kids build friends for life through their games/play time and it offers endless emotional, mental and physical benefits.

Coronation Park is also a great location. Within local neighbourhood, empty soccer field that is not usually in use (with many other soccer fields within the area). There is also an empty soccer field right beside Hewitt's Creek School (near the tennis courts) that is never in use.

Mapleton Park is a good site. Large field. No league soccer being played there. Also large area next to basketball court
