Arenas
,
When most people think
of Canada, they think hockey.
With the popularity of
the greatest game on ice,
Canada's No. 1 boarding
school decided to make a
significant investment by building an
arena on campus in order to elevate its
hockey program.
As time was of the essence, Shawnigan
Lake School decided to build a 120' x 330'
Sprung structure which could be built and
operational in six months.
This state-of-the-art facility includes
an elevated climate-controlled viewing
section, large dressing rooms, concessions,
restrooms and storage. The tall peak
height and bright interior membrane
enhance the overall playing environment.
