About Us
Taking place every Family Day Weekend, the Brockville Winter Classic began as a fundraiser to support the transformation of an underutilized space into a vibrant, year-round facility.
Today, Rotary Park stands as a testament to these efforts, featuring one of Canada's premier outdoor skating rinks.
​
Building on the success of the Rotary Revitalization Committee’s work since 2010, the Winter Classic was launched in 2015 to raise funds for a roof over Rotary Park. What started as a simple hockey tournament has grown into a celebrated event, featuring NHL Alumni and dedicated to fundraising and honoring the rich history of hockey.
​
We are proud to continue enhancing Rotary Park as a free-use facility and are committed to fostering the growth of minor hockey through exciting new initiatives.

Events of this scale thrive on the support of volunteers, and we’re grateful for the many individuals who have embraced our mission and given their time to ensure everything runs seamlessly.
