The start of next season delayed to January 2008

Last week the City announced a wide range of service cuts. The outdoor artificial ice rinks are not opening until January. I read in the papers about how kids are spending too much time in front of computers, XBoxes and TV, and yet the City delays opening the rinks until after Christmas holidays.

I think the cuts were chosen to annoy the citizens so that we'd complain to the people running for provincial legislature this fall. I'll get off my soap box now.

I'll update the membership fees once I find out what the City will be charging for our (reduced amount of) ice time.

I hope you're all having a good summer. It seems strange to be updating a speed skating blog at this time of year!
