Happy New Year, Arbour Lake Residents!
We are looking forward to another great year, and we can’t wait to have you join us at the lake! The year 2025 was phenomenal and we are incredibly excited to organize many more events in 2026. Help us make 2026 the best year for you. If you have any recommendations for activities, programs, or events let us know by emailing [email protected].
The ALRA wishes you a joyful and safe winter season!
Lake Fees
The 2026 fees are due and, as of January 1, have begun accumulating interest. These fees can be paid at the lake office by cash, cheque, debit, Visa, or Mastercard. You can also pay through your online banking using the external reference number noted on your invoice. If you have not received your invoice or have any questions, please contact the lake office. Be advised that this fee is mandatory, and you cannot opt out of paying it.
Make sure to get your payment in soon!
Ice at the Lake
Hopefully, the winter weather will allow us to open the skating season early! But please remember that the ice could be thin and dangerous! Stay off the ice and all docks while the red flags are up.
There may be times when we need to close the ice for maintenance or because of unsafe weather conditions. The lake will be open on natural ice when ice depths measure between 10” and 15” and the Zamboni will be used once all test locations reach a minimum depth of 15”.
Please never throw rocks onto the ice surface.
Watch the Flags!
Flagpoles are located around the lake and at the front entrance, which indicate ice conditions as follows:
• Red Flag: Full closure of the lake area (stay off and far away from the water).
• Yellow Flag: Partial closure (contact the lake office or check the website for updates).
• Green Flag: Lake is open for all activities for the summer or winter season.

• All skaters under the age of 18 must wear a helmet while on the ice at Arbour Lake.
