Outdoor Hockey Rink (Stock photo)
The Town of Milton is looking for volunteers to help bring free outdoor skating to local neighbourhoods during the 2026-27 winter season.
Entering its fifth year, the neighbourhood outdoor rink program relies on volunteers to maintain and operate skating rinks at pre-approved parks, providing residents with opportunities to stay active and enjoy the winter season at no cost.
Groups of at least six adults from different households can apply to operate a rink site. Each group must designate a team leader and take responsibility for regular ice flooding, snow clearing and safety checks.
The Town provides the rink and guidance throughout the season, while volunteers handle day-to-day maintenance.
Both new and returning volunteers are encouraged to apply to help create a place for neighbours to connect and enjoy outdoor skating.
Applications close Sunday, November 8th.
