Lace up your skates because preparations are underway in Bay Bulls for a new outdoor community skating rink behind the Regional Lifestyle Centre.
Council issued a request for proposals for site preparation work for the new outdoor community rink during Monday’s public council meeting.
Deputy Mayor Jason O’Brien said the Town is planning on leveling off some ground before erecting the rink.
“This is just the first step along the way to make the ground more suitable,” said O’Brien.
Mayor Keith O’Driscoll noted the Town was able to secure a donation of leftover boards from the Mary Brown’s Centre for the rink. Members of council expressed their gratitude for the donation.
Furthermore, the Town agreed to submit an application to Active NL for funding for the rink.
