Curling at Penguin Park

Once only an obscure winter sport that hardly anyone watched during the Olympics, curling is now a favorite winter pass time. This is the game of sliding a big heavy piece of stone that has an attached handle down a marked space of ice as your teammates use their best sweeping skills to help guide it to the center of the target on the other end of the ice.

Right now at Penguin Park, you are able to rent a curling lane and see why people love the game so much. If you decide you really love it or are looking to meet new people in the community you can even join a curling program.

Party in an Igloo

Have the best winter party of the season or just be the super cool favorite parent for a month by hosting a party in an igloo for your kids and up to 9 friends. You can rent an igloo at Penguin Park. The package comes with use of the igloo for up to 10 kids, pizza, cupcakes, drinks, and time for ice skating. When the party is over you don’t have to clean up, it is all done for you.
