Support The Forge

The Forge Community Iceplex is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit bringing Central Oregon's first year-round, two-sheet NHL-regulation ice rink to Bend, built entirely through community investment. Every dollar raised goes directly toward facility buildout and initial operating expenses. Your gift is tax-deductible, and it becomes a permanent part of something Bend has been working toward for years.
