Capilano Ice Maker for Hire

Capilano Community League has been fortunate to have a great ice maker for the past 9 years...but the time has finally arrived for the best to retire. So, it is with sad hearts we have to say good-bye to Jeff White and his legendary ice making skills. Capilano has been blessed with a great rink facility, yet it is the quality of fresh ice on a cold winter day that makes it truly special. The ice maker always has a challenge mostly due to Mother Nature not always cooperating when it is time for a flood. However even with perfect weather, great ice needs experience, technique, and tons of hard work in the cold and wind to create the perfect surface. So Capilano Community League would like to recognize Jeff White and his son Trevor with a heartfelt THANK YOU for all their late nights on the ice, and their long-standing commitment to the community. Thank-you Jeff for the care that you took with the rink that has made all those skating, and hockey memories possible!

So, with that being said…the Capilano Community League now has some big shoes to fill. We are seeking a new ice maker for the 2023-2024 season. This paid position will begin in late November, weather permitting.

Applicants must be able to safely handle the physical aspects of snow removal and ice making equipment as well as be flexible with work hours to remove snow before the rink is open. Most important is a desire to see the result of your work put smiles on the faces of our community! Interested applicants, should forward your resume to Sam at rink@capilanocl.ca.
