Wawa's hockey and curling ice is closed for the next few days, for a major equipment replacement at the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre.
Community Services and Tourism Director Alex Patterson explains staff are replacing the condenser, a critical component of the ice plant.
While Patterson notes colder weather would have been helpful, he says there are some measures that can be taken to avoid problems.
Patterson reminds the rest of the community centre - like the gym - remains open, and the installation's expected to be finished by March 5th - just in time for this weekend's Wawa Ice Fishing Derby.
