Lake Fees
Your invoice for your annual lake fee should have arrived in your mailbox for the 2025 year. If you have not received your invoice, contact the lake office for a copy. Please be advised that this fee is mandatory, and you cannot opt out of paying it. Fees are due on January 1. Fees can be paid at the lake office by cash, cheque, debit, Visa or Mastercard. You can also pay through your online banking using your external reference number, noted on your invoice.
What Do the Flags Mean?
Flagpoles are located around the lake and at the front entrance, which indicate ice conditions as follows:
• Red Flag = Full closure. Stay far away from the ice.
• Yellow Flag = Partial closure. Contact the lake office or check the website for updates.
• Green flag = Open for all winter activities.
Ice Safety
The lake is still in the process of freezing over, please remember the ice may be extremely thin and dangerous! Stay off the ice and all docks when the red flags are up. The red flags will be removed once it is safe, and when we open for skating season!
• No one will be allowed on the ice surface until a depth of 10” has been observed in our test locations. This will be on natural ice only (not resurfaced by the Olympia Zamboni).
• The Arbour Lake Olympia will not be put onto the ice until a depth of 15” has been observed in our test locations. Skaters will have to skate on the natural ice between depths of 10” to 15”.
