As of April 3, there will be no more Thursday 5am practice sessions. There has been little or no participation the past few weeks. We are waiting to hear whether the rink has any other time slots open for adding another drop-in session over the Spring and Summer. Keep checking back for updates. For those of you who did occasionally skate at that early hour, enjoy the extra shuteye!
