Proceed to the left end of the rink. Locker rooms are near the Zamboni door (under the scoreboard). Rink office through the last door on the left.  Only 2 locker rooms (almost heated) so arriving dressed is recommended. Locker rooms are shared by more then one team and your bags and anything else will be dumped outside, while you're on the ice, to make room for the next team.  You will have to walk on wooden boards (with nail heads) or very old cork/rubber pads with exposed concrete, or even across the iron plates at the zamboni doors so skate guards are recommended.  The only rest-rooms are next to the entrance where you came in.  This is a "COLD" rink with doors to the players bench knee-high off the ice.  No food, drink or vending machines.
