More problems maintaining the ice surface on the new skating oval behind Dieppe city hall.
The oval is now closed (for the second time) this winter, with the closure being "indefinite".
I suspect that the oval is done for the winter, and that they will attempt the "big fix" this summer for next winter's skating season. If they can't address the situation, this could be a major black mark for Mayor LaPierre, since this project was very much his "baby"
Personally, I wonder if the current problems are related to the accelerated construction schedule they used for the oval this fall. They certainly seemed to put it all together with surprising haste. In any event, I hope they can solve the problems as I think this oval will be a major attraction for downtown Dieppe in the wintertime going forward.......
