Herbert H Carnegie Centennial Centre

For every Lap around the Rink I skate, I salivate even more.
Popcorn ($ 3.00+) smell WAFTING through the plexiglass.
Mere 10-​feet away from the Goal Line, just out of reach.
North York Centennial Centre is convenient located behind Centennial Library.
Walking distance to Northview Heights Secondary and North York General.
I see plenty of people especially Teens walking here instead of driving.
Home to the North York Rangers therefore its unlike most Rinks I’ve been.
The area is very open concept, bright and full of laughter and excitement.
Plenty of benches to change into Skates. Half side of Stadium Seats for observers.
Skate Sharpening/​Lazering available. Even saw some posting of Skates for sale.
As said above, a Food Shop with the basics; Hotdog, Chips, Coffee/​Tea, Pop.
This 1-​Rink is more than a facility for the General Public but for Competitive Hockey.
Monday night Public Skate 6:45 — 8:00 pm.
It was a pleasant skate and I believe the open environment made it so.
There was more Parents skating with Children rather than observing from the side.
That made the Youth-​to-​Adult ratio more balanced than other Public Skate locations.
Although Skate-​time is less than 1.50 hrs, I felt comfort in this surrounding.
