Celebrate the opening of the Carrville Skate Trail on Feb. 14!

Sharpen your skates – there’s another place to skate in Vaughan! The Carrville Skate Trail is now open for you to enjoy. 

You’re invited to join us at the outdoor skate trail, located at 655 Thomas Cook Ave., for official grand opening celebrations on Friday, Feb. 14! Beginning at 11:30 a.m., the event will include remarks from Mayor Steven Del Duca, a ribbon-cutting ceremony with Members of Council, free hot chocolate and public skating. 

This outdoor trail is a 600-foot loop located behind the Carrville Community Centre. The community centre remains closed. Details for the official grand opening of the Carrville Community Centre will be released later. Access to the washroom and change rooms will be available for skaters. Please follow directional signage onsite for parking and rink locations. 

Weather permitting, the skate trail will be open daily until 11 p.m. and closed for regular maintenance on Thursdays between 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Outdoor ice rinks are subject to unplanned closures due to varying environmental factors such as temperature, wind, ice thickness and precipitation (rain or snow). Staff assess rink ice surfaces throughout the day and if safety concerns arise during these assessments, the rink will be promptly closed to ensure everyone’s safety.

For the enjoyment and safety of all skaters, everyone is asked to follow the City’s Skating Rink Guidelines (PDF). Rinks are unsupervised unless otherwise stated in the recreational skating and shinny hockey schedule.
