Re: New ice rink in the works, Burnaby NOW, April 17.
Dear Editor
More ice time and more floor time! The Burnaby Minor Lacrosse Club is also looking forward to a new arena in South Burnaby.
All users are in need of this new arena with the covered outdoor multi-use lacrosse box, slated for 2016, being shelved. The commitment from the Burnaby parks, recreation and cultural services department for a new arena is great news to the lacrosse community in Burnaby.
The current facilities, the three arenas and Burnaby’s three outdoor boxes are all being used to capacity and the BMLC has had to look for more floor time at Richmond and Surrey facilities. The addition of another multi-use arena is a great addition to the existing sports facilities in Burnaby and great benefit to Burnaby minor sports.
