Click here to see the Parks & Rec calendar. The Richard G. Lockwood Civic Center officially opened to the public in January 2001. This multi-use recreation facility offers the residents of Ogdensburg and the surround communities a large range of activities and events throughout the year. Public and private skating is offered during our winter months. The Recreation Department is offering three programs for the public at the Richard G. Lockwood Civic Center. The programs will be offered on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and will run every week for the remainder of the skating season. Parents & Tots - 10:00 to 11:00 AM - This program offers parents the opportunity to bring their little ones to the rink to enjoy some skating without the hassle of large numbers and older skaters. Tots are children who are not in school yet.
Adult Skating - Noon - 1:00 PM - How about getting in some exercise at lunch time. This is the perfect way to avoid the big lunches and enjoy some skating. If you have a day off during the week, this would be a great opportunity to get in some skating. Again, this is for adults only.

The new Dobisky Center which opened
in the fall of 2007 will be a showcase for our
community and the many anticipated boating visitors from Canada and the
U.S. This beautiful building with its many amenities, including a
boater's lounge with showers and laundry facilities, meeting rooms
overlooking the majestic St. Lawrence River, large roofed outdoor deck,
kitchen area, and handicapped accessible restrooms, is available to the
residents of Ogdensburg and visitors to our City.
Senior Citizens - 11:00 AM - Noon - We hope that senior citizens will take this opportunity to come to the arena and enjoy an hour of skating set aside just for them.
