The Ray Twinney Complex, formerly known as the Newmarket Recreational Complex, is a multi-purpose recreational facility in the southwest portion of Newmarket, Ontario, built in 1985. The complex was named for former Newmarket mayor Ray Twinney.
The complex includes two ice pads, a swimming pool which includes a wading pool and a hot tub, two conference rooms, one lighted outdoor multi-purpose sports field, two soccer pitches, and three baseball / softball diamonds.
The main arena has 3,700 seats. It is the current home rink of the Newmarket Hurricanes of the Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League, the Newmarket Saints of the Ontario Lacrosse Jr. B League, and has also been home to the short-lived Newmarket Royals Ontario Hockey League team in the mid-1990s and Newmarket Saints AHL club. The second arena is currently home to the Newmarket Figure Skating Club and its Iced Energy Synchronized Skating Teams.

Famous quotes containing the words ray and/or complex:
“How false is the conception, how frantic the pursuit, of that treacherous phantom which men call Liberty: most treacherous, indeed, of all phantoms; for the feeblest ray of reason might surely show us, that not only its attainment, but its being, was impossible. There is no such thing in the universe. There can never be. The stars have it not; the earth has it not; the sea has it not; and we men have the mockery and semblance of it only for our heaviest punishment.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
“Uneducated people are unfortunate in that they do grasp complex issues, educated people, on the other hand, often do not understand simplicity, which is a far greater misfortune.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
