Ice time rates freeze hockey camp out of Nelson, fickle across B.C. rinks

  • One hour of ice time at Nelson costs $524.01, significantly more than the Edmonton Oilers' $365 rental fee, leading James McEwan to cancel his hockey camp this year.
  • The Regional District of Central Kootenay's rental rates have been described as an obstacle to local player development by Nelson Minor Hockey Association president Kelly Everett.
  • The RDCK plans to review its ice rental rates this month and consider aligning them with lower rates in surrounding areas.
  • McEwan estimates that hosting two groups for five days would cost about $10,000, which he cannot afford due to rising rental fees.
