Canadian Sport Centre Calgary

Just came here to see my boyfriend’s son take ice skating lessons and was just wowed by this facility.
Saw some speedskaters in training, a hockey game going on and skating lessons for kids… if this gives you any idea of the size of this place.
From what I understand, it has the fastest ice in the world, hence making it the ideal place to break records– not that I was going to try…
After the skating lesson, there was public skating allowed and I got to skate on the ice of the speedskaters… not being the greatest figure skater there is, I had to be assisted for a while until I felt comfortable enough to go on my own. I am proud to say — no falls :) I actually had a great time and was able to hold my own.
No wonder this was the location for olympic events…
Wish there was a facility like this in Texas… but then again, that is Canada for you… home of hockey…
