Ice plant upgrades coming for Kimberley Civic Centre

The City of Kimberley will be replacing the shared ice plant for the Kimberley Civic Centre and the Kimberley Curling Club once the season wraps up.

Work will begin in late April once the current system shuts down.

City staff said the project is an important investment in safety, reliability and long‑term facility sustainability.

Work is expected to last until early September.

Once the system is operational, staff will need approximately two weeks to build the ice.

An anticipated reopening date is scheduled for Sept. 18.

City staff said they understand the late start will affect a number of user groups and appreciate their patience while the upgrades are underway.
