Other areas of the Stroud facility, including the arena and banquet hall, also remain closed following the identification of a significant structural issue involving an interior wall. Based on a professional engineer’s assessment, the extent of repairs required means the arena will remain closed for the remainder of the ice season, and the banquet hall will not be available for summer programming. A staff report outlining findings and anticipated costs will be presented at the Council Meeting on February 11, 2026.
The town recognizes the impact these closures have on residents and community groups and thanks the community for its continued patience and understanding.
