The ice slides are back

Two ice slides have returned to Fort Saskatchewan for the season.

These slides, located at West River's Edge and the Rotary Amphitheatre, were completed last week. 

"People will be able to climb the ice steps and then slide down the great big ice slide," said Jenelle Hart, parks services supervisor with the city. 

These slides were made of ice to serve as a natural alternative to something like plastic.

Councilor Birgit Blizzard made a post to the Fort Sask Informed Facebook group to share the news of the slides being open.

She shared a picture of her and her dog riding down the slide together.

"I tried it out," Blizzard wrote. "My dog was not as impressed as I was."
