Hockey season is upon us and the rink will soon be flooded so that our local Priddis Panthers Hockey teams can start having their practices and games "at home".

Please be advised that the Priddis Panthers Hockey group will be using the rink during these times:

Saturdays 9AM - 5PM

Mondays 6PM - 8:30PM

Wednesdays 6PM - 8:30PM

Thursday 6PM - 8:30PM

In addition to the above mentioned reserved times, the PCA would like to remind users that AHS Covid guidelines and protocols are always in place. There is currently a mandate that there should not be any gatherings of more than 15 people.

While the PCA board will not be able to always supervise the use of the rink, we would ask those who do wish to use the rink during free times to respect Covid Guidelines. If the rink is already at the maximum number of users please wait until people leave the rink or come back another time.

Thank you!

Have a great Season Priddis Panthers Hockey!

The Priddis Community Association in collaboration with the Priddis Panthers Hockey Association, Multipurpose Building Committee (Kids’ Complex), and dozens of community volunteers have completed a significant portion of Phase 1 of the Priddis Rink Redevelopment. The MPB Committee will move to finalize this phase with the construction of zamboni storage space.

The committee had anticipated that the current temporary container could be adapted and used as a heated temporary zamboni enclosure. However, upon further review the container was determined to be insufficient to meet the necessary requirement. 

​

In order to complete phase 1, the PCA and MPB committee has decided that a more appropriate solution is to build a garage-type, heated and ventilated, structure that will store the zamboni and other necessary equipment. This building will meet the community development covenants and maintain visual esthetics of the property. Its construction will also allow the PCA to remove the current storage container. 

The existing old school house/library building will remain untouched with the new garage structure being built immediately to the south of the old school house. It is anticipated that the old school house structure will not be removed until Phase 2 fundraising is complete and development is approved.

We hope to begin construction of the garage structure in Fall 2020, with completion anticipated for early 2021.
