1️⃣ 7.8 km of pure magic ✨
2️⃣ First opened in 1970-71 and has been an annual tradition for over 50 years (except 2023 😢).
3️⃣ ❄️ 2023: For the first time ever, the rink didn’t open due to warm weather.
4️⃣ 2024: Opened for just a couple of days! 😟
5️⃣ Starting in October, @ncc_ccn begins prepping by draining the canal & flooding it periodically to build ~30 cm of solid ice.
 It takes 10–14 consecutive days of temps between -10°C to -20°C to create perfect skating conditions! 🥶
