DON'T FIX WHAT'S NOT BROKEN! Keep your incompetent mitts out of this.

As the report indicates, they are more effective in booking ice time, more efficient in the use of resources, and much more responsive to the needs of local communities.

The management of the rink works with and responds to the needs and concerns of the community in which it operates.

I will tell anyone who will listen that my life is better because of the programs and services that are run from this arena. I coach my son's Pee Wee hockey team there and I play on Tuesday nights in a men's league. I am amazed how well run and efficient things are at this arena and what a good community spirit that is generated by those who manage the programs there. Please
do not tamper with the administration of this facility.

Centralization is unnecessary and only increases bureaucracy.

the way it operates is mind boggling. It should instead be used as a model for community building. More rinks in more neigbourhoods is a
better plan.

We believe the current structure serves the needs of the entire community, while respecting the need for accessibility and diversity.
