Have you ever wished you could be a superhero? Well now is your chance to become a shovel superhero.

The City of Greater Sudbury is looking for more volunteers to help maintain its more than 54 outdoor rinks across the city. 

Outdoor rink volunteers are responsible for shovelling, scraping and flooding the rinks, making sure the field house is open, and may also operate the canteen. At some locations, volunteers can also be involved with special events like carnivals and fundraising events. Volunteers at the outdoor rinks are supported by the city with the funds and equipment necessary to carry out their duties. 

Neighbourhood rinks would not be possible without the efforts of the countless volunteers who donate their time and energy to keep them running. The City of Greater Sudbury is asking people to consider supporting their community by giving their time to their local neighbourhood rink. 

For more information on the outdoor rinks or how to get involved, contact the City of Greater Sudbury Leisure Services at 705-674-4455, ext. 2446, email [email protected], or visit greatersudbury.ca.
