Seasonally outdoor skating rinks can be found in Lakeview Estates, Dumasfield, Holowachuk Estates, Owl River, Rich Lake, Hylo, and Craig End. You can also enjoy the unique experience of Skate the Lake with parking available at McArthur Park on 99th Street in Lac La Biche.
Fee Assistance
All Lac La Biche County residents should have fair and equal access to County programs, services, and recreation facilities, but cost can be a barrier for some. The Fair Access Fee Assistance program is a single application process for low income residents to access services at reduced rates.
How to Apply - The Application Form is accepted throughout the year, but funding is based on, and must be used within, each calendar year. Forms are available in all County recreation facilities and some referral agencies, or by clicking on the link below.
KidSport - The County is also a supporter of KidSport, an initiative that provides fee assistance for children and youth in low-income situations. Application forms are available at the Bold Center and Portage Pool. For more details, please call (780) 623-3829.
