Glenora Hockey Rink Edmonton January 1929

Nothing captures the spirit of a Canadian winter like a game of hockey outdoors. This 1929 photograph shows young Edmontonians bundled against the cold, sticks ready, carving tracks into a fresh sheet of ice at the Glenora community rink. With wooden boards, wire fencing, and steam rising in the background, the scene reflects a beloved local tradition, neighbourhood rinks bringing friends, families, and future stars together under open skies.

This print celebrates the joy, determination, and playful rivalry that have made hockey a cornerstone of Edmonton life for generations.
