Taber arena set to reopen Friday after propane explosion repairs
The Town of Taber will hold an official grand re-opening for its ice arena, months after the facility was damaged by a propane explosion.
Why it matters
The reopening restores a key recreation facility for the Taber community after months without access.
The Town of Taber is preparing for the official grand re-opening of its ice arena this Friday, following months of repair work after a propane explosion damaged the facility late last winter.
The blast forced the arena to close, cutting off access to a key community and recreation space in the town. Since then, crews have worked on refurbishing the building to bring it back into service.
Town officials are marking the reopening with a formal ceremony, signaling the end of a lengthy repair process and the return of ice activities to the facility.
