Clarington reopens Orono Arena after $3 million renovation

The Municipality of Clarington announced the reopening of Orono Arena following extensive renovations inside the building.

Mayor Foster and members of Council, along with members of the Orono Amateur Athletic Association, officially marked the reopening with a complimentary public skate on September 28.

The $3 million renovation included replacing the refrigerated floor under the ice pad, upgrading the changing rooms and shower areas, and replacing the rubber flooring throughout the arena.

The ice pad was also updated with all-new rink boards and a heated penalty box. These upgrades will extend the arena’s lifespan by another 15 years.

“The renovations to the arena are complete and we’re proud to be celebrating the official reopening with a free skate for our community” said Allen Lagace, President, Orono Amateur Athletic Association.

Mayor Foster, members of Council, members of the Orono Amateur Athletic Association, representatives from the Orono Agricultural Society and Clarington residents cut the ribbon to reopen the Orono Arena after extensive renovations.
