Construction of Covered Rink Project Set to Begin

Press Release

The Sports and Recreation Unit of the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake is excited to announce the commencement of the Covered Rink Project. Construction of Phase I is set to begin today, Tuesday, September 17th, with Rice Mohawk Landscaping serving as the General Contractor for this phase. The project is expected to be completed within eight (8) to ten (10) weeks.

Initial construction activities will include securing the work site through the installation of fencing and appropriate signage, followed by the clearing of the area, which involves the removal of tree stumps and brush disposal. Soil testing results have confirmed that all samples meet A-quality standards, ensuring environmental safety. Between one-half and two-thirds of the soil will be stored on-site, adjacent to the Skate Park, for potential future use.

Please note that parking at the Arena rink will be limited throughout the construction period.

For any inquiries or concerns, please contact Lance McComber at 450-635-1016 or via email at lance.mccomber@mck.ca.
