Bridgewater: Outdoor Rinks May Be Cancelled


The plan to have two outdoor rinks at Kinsmen Field in Bridgewater may be falling through the cracks. Councillor Andrew Tanner says volunteers have had a difficult time trying to build the rinks while dealing with adverse weather and warm temperatures. Tanner says the winter weather hasn't co-operated.



The Bridgewater Fire Department tried on three separate occasions to fill the rinks, but have been unsuccessful. He says it's upsetting because the rinks have been well-utilized by the public in the past. Tanner says they will continue to bank on cold weather for the rinks to be built, but adds, right now the outlook doesn't look good.
