This summer the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games are happening, which means that after 41 days and 3,000 torchbearers, the torch will arrive in Toronto on July 10th for the opening ceremonies! 

We are pleased that out of the 130+ communities, St.Thomas will be one of the cities that the Pan Am Flame comes through! 

In honor of this exciting event there will be a torch relay community celebration, which includes two sponsored "fun run" TRAIN RIDES offered at NO COST courtesy of Railway City Tourism and the St. Thomas Economic Development Corporation! The celebration will include speeches, entertainment from our local elementary schools, and most importantly the arrival of the torch.

The Do-able Neighbourhood Project has been busy in the North end of St. Thomas! With the help of local firefighters who flood the rink to ensure a quality ice surface, people in St. Thomas are now able to get out those skates and enjoy something notably Canadian - outdoor skating!

The North Rink is open:

WEEKDAYS - 4-7PM
WEEKENDS - 9AM-7PM

Keep updated on the rink from the Northside Hub here.

It is not down in any map; true places never are.
