EDUCATION
  Professional Ice Maker (PIM) Course - Presented by FOMA

, The Professional Ice Maker (PIM) course is an exclusive continuing education opportunity for FOMA members
who seek to improve their quality of work within the field of hockey and facility operations. Backed by the National
Hockey League, this course has an advanced focus on making and maintaining hockey ice and the variables that
affect it throughout the season.

In the first part of the course, participants will learn about practices most commonly used in larger facilities to
maintain a quality sheet of ice and will then discuss SOPs for converting the building to non-hockey events. With
focus around the importance of creating good working relationships, the instructors will discuss the role of a PIM
and how it relates to working with each of the different groups within a building.

The second part will cover in detail the expectations set by the National Hockey League for each of its facilities
and how each building is able to achieve those standards. Specifics in the Field of Play, Game Day Operations
and In-Game Procedures are just a few of the topics that will be covered in the second part of the course. Once
participants have completed the classroom portion of the course, they will be given an examination which they
must pass in order to earn their PIM certificate. Course Held June 17–18.

FORUM
                                R-22 Refrigerant Phase Out

, With the impending phase out of R-22 under the Montreal Protocol,
a number of NHL arenas that our members operate will be facing the
need to upgrade or replace their ice making refrigeration systems in
the near future. We would like to bring together representatives from
each of those buildings that currently use R-22 to discuss this issue
as a group. FOMA will have a representative from Chemours present
to answer questions about their R-22 replacement options. Also, a
representative from CIMCO Toromont will be in attendance to discuss
the different system and equipment replacement options available.
Following the CIMCO and Chemours presentations, there will be a
group Question and Answer session.
