help resurrect a legacy of memories and future glory




Viking Carena Built 1952
Destroyed by fire July 07, 2005
New Viking Carena in progress
 

 

Welcome to the Viking Carena Complex website!

This website was designed to help promote awareness and support in re-building the Viking Carena. This arena was where the famed Sutter brothers learned the game of hockey on their way to the NHL

After 53 years of glorious memories the historic hockey palace was leveled by fire on July 07, 2005.

We are happy to announce the re-building of future memories for our children and surrounding community.

Please join us for our historic Grand Opening Festivities August 17 & 18, 2007. We won't have Foster Hewitt available like we did in 1952 however the days festivities are sure to be memorable.

The support and energy of all involved has been greatly appreciated.
