There is free noon hour shinny at Don Ross Arena every Monday from noon to 1 p.m. until March 27 thanks to sponsorship from River City Plumbing, Heating and Air.
“As a local business I think it is important to give back to the community that is supporting us by bringing their business to us,” says Clint Steinacher with River City.
The company is covering the costs for the entire season of River City Shinny open to 18 and older. Participants must bring their own sticks, skates, gloves and helmets.
“We are very fortunate to have local businesses like River City come forward as sponsors, making these types of activity available to everyone in our community,” says Bill Samborski, director of Leisure Services.
“We hope that people will use this opportunity and enjoy an hour of shinny hockey on Mondays at the Don Ross.”
Other opportunities to play noon hour shinny for a $3 drop-in fee are at the Civic Centre Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
