Not sure where to go? Check out the picture below, you can click on it for a larger view.
The red rectangle is the Sargent Park arena where we do all our indoor skating. The CKRC is the blue rectangle (bottom centre of the picture). Parking and the main entrance for CKRC are accessible off Sargent Avenue (green/white arrow). Once inside the main entrance, stay to the left and follow the signs to the canteen. At the back of the seating area you will find another corridor that runs along the north side of the building (yellow star) – look for a Speed Skating logo on a double set of glass doors. The club rooms are off that corridor.
