Community Skate Exchange

Brantford’s Community Skate Exchange returns to help provide residents with gently-used ice skates to enjoy outdoor recreation during the winter season. Residents are invited to donate, exchange and pick-up a free pair of gently-used ice skates.

The Community Skate Exchange program takes place each Wednesday on December 4 and 11, 2024 and January 8 to February 12, 2023 from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Harmony Square main office, located at 89 Dalhousie Street. Community members in need of ice skates, or looking to exchange their old ones for a new size, are encouraged to attend. Appointments outside of regular program hours can be booked by emailing harmonysquare@brantford.ca.

You can now drop off gently used skates during Brantford Bulldog  home games! Simply bring your skates to the Bulldogs Rinkside Lounge, where we will be collecting them for donation. Every donation helps to provide recreational opportunities for someone in need in the community.
