About
Oakville Arena has been an iconic community meeting spot for more than six decades. It boasts having only one of four remaining arenas in Ontario with a distinctive wooden truss roof system designed by Norman Otto Hipel, an Ontario politician and builder who patented the roof system in 1928. Come see why the fabric of this building makes it such a legacy within the town.
This exhibit is located inside the Trafalgar Park Community Centre.
