News and updates relating to Lorne Park Watercolours specifically.

UPDATE (March 9, 2015):  We hope many of you had a chance to enjoy using the ice rink in our park this winter. We are tremendously grateful to Walter Beierl and his flooding team for battling the cold weather to build and maintain it.

Though we had a slow start due to some technical issues, there were plenty of ideal temperatures this season to accommodate the flooding. That being said, The City Park and Forestry Department has notified us that the rink will be dismantled and the hut removed during the week of March 23rd. Hopefully, you'll get a few more skates in before it's too late!

UPDATE (January 17, 2015): The hydro and water repairs to the ice rink have now been completed, but we need your help!  We need volunteers to join the Flooding Team to assist in getting the ice rink up and running as soon as possible to take advantage of the cold weather!  We also need help to keep it in working condition.

IceSkate-158x122January 9, 2015: With obvious signs of the ice rink in our park, you may be wondering what is happening.  Despite the recent cold spell making for ideal conditions to create a slick bed of ice, the City has run into some technical issues preventing the ability of our volunteers to flood the area. Rest assured we are in communication with the Mississauga Parks Department to have the problem resolved as soon as possible.   Until then,  stay warm!
