Tips & Advice
- Wear comfortable, flexible pants and bring a clean pair of athletic shoes with rubber soles, as street shoes are not permitted on the ice.
- Dress in layers, as the ice house temperature is around 40°F, and bring a bicycle helmet if you prefer extra head protection.
- Groups of 4 or more should sign up together to ensure they are placed on the ice as a team.
- If you have any concerns about bending or delivering a stone, inquire about the stick-delivery option, which extends playing careers.
- Pre-registration is required as space is limited, so secure your spot early to experience this unique winter sport.
