The Hidden Hut facility has been with Hidden Valley for so many years that likely most of the community doesn’t give it a second thought. Some community members may be more familiar as they visit during the summer to use the rink for ball hockey, mobile skate park, or other activities. There are also the winter users who are there for recreational youth hockey or skating. Likely, the Hut is a building you see, but aren’t sure of its purpose.
Hidden Hut was built in 2000 (wow 24 years). Over the years, the facility has allowed HVCA to run youth sport programs, maintain the outdoor rink, and other community events, including the Sounds and Music festival this past summer. It is important to note that HVCA is responsible for the care the maintenance of Hidden Hut. HVCA assets (Hidden Hut and outdoor rink) are maintained by the community association under an agreement with the City.
Stewardship of the facility in 2023 included electrical, plumbing, and cleaning. Although not outwardly visible, the HVCA board has been planning and completing minor updates to the facility to support future activities. HVCA hired a local plumber and electrician to complete work at the Hut this past summer. Maintenance of the hut not only ensures HVCA is in compliance with regulations, but also the safety of all users.
In addition to the Hut, HVCA is responsible for the garbage receptacles and port-a-potty on site. If you have visited the outdoor rink or accessible playground, you likely used one of the garbage cans. HVCA uses a local company to remove waste.
