UPDATE Feb 15th-SNOW CLOSURES
The City of Burlington makes every effort to keep their facilities open during their regular business hours; however, unsafe weather conditions can close a facility. Please click "read more" to understand if your player's game is going forward. 

February 15th: The City of Burlington will be pre-emptively closing arenas on Sunday February 16th due to the incoming significant weather event. All BLOMHA programming in Burlington will be cancelled. Please consult your schedule.



BLOMHA lets the city make decisions about cancelling ice/closing arenas, so if the city has not closed their facilities, your scheduled ice session will still go on as planned. If you don't wish to bring your registrant to an ice session because of inclement weather, they will not be penalized. Please note at this point in the season we are unable to offer additional ice sessions for ice time that is cancelled due to weather or that you choose not to attend.
