Edina, Minn., Sept. 7, 2020 – Braemar Arena, 7501 Ikola Way, will begin to offer adult open hockey beginning Sept. 9, after postponing the program due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

cost to skate is $5, and helmets must be worn while on the ice. Goalies skate free.
Skaters should follow the Arena’s COVID-19 guidelines, including no locker room or shower access and arriving in their gear. Hockey bags should be left at home or in a vehicle, and skaters
must exit the building within 10 minutes of their session ending. For a complete list of guidelines, visit BraemarArena.com.
Visitors to the Arena should also continue to follow public health guidance, stay home when sick and maintain six feet of social distance from others when they are not engaging in sport
