The Perth & District Community Centre remains closed after an ice resurfacing machine struck and damaged the arena boards Sunday evening.
The Town of Perth says the November 9 incident followed a reported equipment malfunction. No injuries were reported.
The closure has forced the cancellation of several public programs, including Tiny Tot Skate and Adult Skate on Wednesday, November 11, and Pick-Up Hockey on Thursday, November 12.
Tiny Tot Skate was scheduled for 10:30 a.m. to noon, followed by Adult Skate from noon to 1 p.m. Pick-Up Hockey was scheduled for 2 to 3 p.m. Thursday.
The town is reviewing the circumstances surrounding the incident and assessing the repairs needed to safely reopen the arena.
The facility will remain closed until the damaged boards are repaired, the ice resurfacing machine passes a mechanical inspection and the building is deemed safe.
There is no confirmed reopening date.
Affected user groups and facility renters are being contacted directly. The town says further updates will be shared as information becomes available.
The Perth Blue Wings are still scheduled to play the Renfrew Timberwolves Friday night.
