Making an outdoor ice rink is weather dependent. Staff begins the process in early winter by insulating and sealing the drains in the two paved hockey rinks at Lakefront Park. When temperatures have been below freezing long enough to freeze the ground, and the extended forecast looks like they will remain that way, staff will begin flooding the rinks with layers of water utilizing a water tanker truck. Most of the flooding occurs in the overnight hours when it is the coldest and there is no competition from the sun. It can take one or two weeks to make the six to eight inches of ice needed to open the rinks for skaters. The pleasure rink at Lakefront Park will usually take a week longer to obtain skateable ice as it is built on grass. Snow events will slow this process down when ice making staff is needed for snow plowing operations.
