INFORMATION RELEASE
The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen (RDOS) will be hosting an open house event to provide information and gather additional feedback on proposed plans for the Similkameen Recreation Centre’s outdoor arena replacement and conceptual design project.
In 2021, the RDOS determined the outdoor ice rink was reaching its operational end of life due to deteriorating brine lines and would likely reach critical failure any year now. The RDOS is working with a consultant to evaluate arena replacement possibilities and costs and to explore options for potential enhancements and future development on-site.
The open house event will take place on Thursday, February 29, 2024, between 2:30 and 6:30 pm at the Similkameen Recreation Centre, 311 – 9th St, Keremeos. The event will provide an opportunity to discuss the future of the arena and share feedback on the proposed design concepts.
The Similkameen Recreation Centre’s outdoor arena replacement and conceptual design project objectives are to elevate the resident experience when using the outdoor arena, improve the multi-functional asset that can be used year-round, and meet the needs and expectations of a growing local community.
