How Do They Put Logos on Ice Rinks?

Ice Hockey Basics

  • Ice hockey is played on ice. The team that has thrown more pucks into the opponent’s goal is the winner.
  • The 730 meter North Glenmore Park rink lies at the northern end of the reservoir. Open daily, visitors can check out ski trails, Crokicurl, or other rinks.

Ice Making Process

  • Glycol pumped through pipes under the ice cools the brinewater solution. The solution keeps the slab just below freezing so water spread on it freezes. Players sometimes slip on icy spots because ice doesn’t fully melt.

Ice Skating Tips

  • Wear a thin, windproof jacket and lightweight fleece pants allowing movement. About 1 in 700 skaters gets injured, mostly from falls. The average age is 33.
  • Use guards before stepping onto the ice. Some skaters hold the rail at first to get used to the ice.
  • NHL ice is 3/4 inch thick and 16° Fahrenheit. Thicker ice gets softer and slower. The puck board is a durable, moisture-resistant sheet used for hockey rinks.
