Lake Fees
Arbour Lake annual fees are overdue as of February 1, 2022. If you have not paid your fees yet, be sure to do it soon, as interest is accumulating on your overdue balance at the rate of 18% per annum, compounded monthly. Your access to the lake is also currently denied until your fees are paid in full. Fees can be paid in person at the lake office by cash, cheque, debit, Visa, or MasterCard (there will be no additional charges if you pay by credit card). Fees can also be paid through online banking by adding Arbour Lake Residents Association as a payee and using your account number listed on your invoice, if you are not sure of your account number, contact the office and we can assist you. Lake fees are mandatory for all residents living in Arbour Lake and you cannot opt out of paying them.
Lake Hours
Watch our website, social media, or contact the lake office for updates on lake hours.
Ice at the Lake
Hopefully, the January weather will cooperate so we can get as much out of our winter season as possible. Remember we are dealing with Mother Nature, and 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 Olympia Zamboni will be used once all test locations reach a minimum depth of 15”. Please do not throw rocks onto the ice surface. Not only can the rocks damage the Olympia (ice resurfacer), but they also can create holes in the ice when the sun is out, making the surface extremely unsafe. If the rinks are unsafe that means no skating.
What Do the Flags Mean?
- 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.
