Fireside Community Rink
The Community Rink was opened in the winter of 2021!
After years of setting up a temporary rink every winter the developer, Calbridge Developments, constructed a permanent rink in the winter of 2021. The rink is available for resident use and relies on volunteers to ensure the ice is clear and safe to enjoy all winter long! Thanks to the contributions of the Bow RiversEdge Campground Society, the Rotary Club of Cochrane, and the Cochrane Lions Club, snow removal equipment was acquired for the volunteers to upkeep the rink.
