 The Recreation Department is responsible for the operation and maintenance of 2 Community Centres, 70 acres of parkland and playground equipment, Thamesford Library, Embro Town Hall, and Harrington Community Hall. The Recreation Department also provides support for the Zorra Recreation Advisory Committee.

Rental rates for various recreation facilities, including ice, parks, and halls are detailed in our Fees By-law. Visit our By-law page to review.

 

Renting the Ice

We have full ice at both Embro-Zorra Community Centre and Thamesford District Recreation Centre. Ice time is granted according to our Ice Allocation Policy. Please review the Ice Allocation Policy before submitting any ice requests. Any inquiries can be submitted by email.

Some safety protocols have been put in place for those renting halls and ice. Please review the documents below before completing your booking request.
