💬 What Visitors Say

💡Arrive early for Pro Shop services like skate sharpening ($8) and heat molding ($20), as immediate service is not available during public skate sessions due to high demand.
💡If visiting during public skate with young children, be aware that faster skaters share the ice and beginners may struggle with crowd management. Consider signing up for Learn to Skate lessons for structured instruction and safer practice.
💬Purchase a season pass ($80-$230 for residents) or freestyle punch pass (10 visits for $90/resident) if you plan multiple visits—much better value than paying per-session admission.
🕐Plan visits during Friday & Saturday evenings or Sunday afternoons for public skate sessions. Note that the rink closes May 2, 2026 and reopens August 24, so plan accordingly for summer.
💡Bring your own snacks and drinks—concession stands may have limited staffing during certain hours, and food/beverages are restricted to bleachers and lobby areas only.
