It also marked opening day for the new Emera Oval building, a heated facility housing washrooms, change areas and skates, helmets, sledges and snowshoes for loan.
Great turnout so far. <a href="https://t.co/Rb3zvPtWrj">pic.twitter.com/Rb3zvPtWrj</a>
—@SteveBerryCBCOne new addition this year is that skates won't be the only option for getting around the ice. Sledge hockey sledges will be available.
Snowshoes to be used at the nearby Halifax Common will also be available.
All children 12 and under must wear an approved helmet.
