A discussion has recently come up with, what to do with the aging Vernon Civic Arena? The arena was built in 1937 and was home to the Vernon Vipers before the BCHL club moved into the Vernon Multi-Plex in October 2001. Since 2001 the Vipers were forced to play a handful of games at the Civic Arena over the years with the Milti-Plex pre-booked in advance. Several locals in the area are looking at wanting to build a new arena in the area or add a second sheet of ice to Kal Tire Place, while others are looking to save and renovate the aging Civic Arena. Someone has gone as far as starting a facebook page "Saving the Civic Arena" check it out,
