1:50pm: I called the local rink line in advance to ask about the ice and got a busy signal each time - 3 times in an hour.
When I arrived there were 12 shinny players on the ice and 4 changing inside. The two rink staff said the zamboni had been by recently, and the ice looked to be in good shape. It was a bit thin in spots, but hard. There were no opening signs, and no posted schedules, but the staff offered the brochure.
As one of them exited the storage room I noticed two of the old green rink shovels, and some extra mats that weren't laid out yet.
From rink user Duncan Cousins:
For whatever reason, Withrow Park rink (in Riverdale) has not been easy to track down on line for a skating schedule, and as of today only lists Feb 20th!
-I've an old schedule from mid December that I'm going with for later today, but for all I know it's been changed.
