Both skating rinks at the WRC will be closed to the public during the work.<\/strong> However, the building will remain open for scheduled activities off the ice and the Mouton Noir Caf\u00e9 will operate on its regular schedule.<\/p>\n<p>The timing of the work was determined based on the urgency of the repairs, the public tendering process, and the City\u2019s desire to minimize the impact of the work on scheduled activities at the WRC. Please note that the\u00a0entirety of the WRC\u00a0is closed on December 25 and January 1.<\/p>\n<p>The public will still be able to enjoy the outdoor natural ice rinks this winter at Stayner, Prince Albert, King George, and Devon Parks, as well as at Queen Elizabeth Gardens, weather permitting. A new natural ice rink will also be set up in the splash pad area at the northeast corner of Westmount Park. The City is also looking into the possibility of offering other options for skating activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An inspection by the City\u2019s Engineering Department has revealed significant signs of deterioration in the cooling tower of the refrigeration<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":64,"featured_media":105510,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6299],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>WRC ice rinks closed - December 9 to January 3 - City of Westmount<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"WRC ice rinks closed - December 9 to January 3 - City of Westmount\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"An inspection by the City\u2019s Engineering Department has revealed significant signs of deterioration in the cooling tower of the refrigeration\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www2.westmount.org\/en\/replacement-of-the-refrigeration-system-cooling-tower-at-the-wrc\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"City of Westmount\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/villedewestmount\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-11-29T13:30:43+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-11-29T13:55:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www2.westmount.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/banner-63-rink.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1140\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"634\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"M R\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@VilleWestmount\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@VilleWestmount\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"M R\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www2.westmount.org\/en\/replacement-of-the-refrigeration-system-cooling-tower-at-the-wrc\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www2.westmount.org\/en\/replacement-of-the-refrigeration-system-cooling-tower-at-the-wrc\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"M R\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www2.westmount.org\/#\/schema\/person\/70e05049475dd2e62f66f0d3bf30401b\"},\"headline\":\"WRC ice rinks closed &#8211;
