BEFORE YOU ARRIVE:
- Dress appropriately. The rink is cold so don't forget to wear layers and comfortable athletic clothing. Helmets are recommended for all skaters in addition to gloves, socks that come above the ankles, and extra padding. Skaters are welcome to visit the Pro Shop for skates and athletic gear.
- For young and inexperienced skaters, consider enrolling in a Learn to Skate Session and attending a weekday public session.
ONCE YOU'RE HERE:
- Follow the Skate Guard's directions and requests and skate with the flow of traffic.
- All skaters must be wearing their wristband on the ice as well as skates. No shoes allowed.
- Both hockey and figure skates are available for rent. We do not have half sizes. Hockey skates run a little bigger than shoe sizes. Figure skates are usually the same.
- No cameras, cell phones, headphones, backpags, large bags, or purses are allowed on the ice.
- No cones, buckets, or walkers are allowed on the ice to assist new skaters as these can create a danger for others. Carrying small children is also forbidden.
- No hockey sticks or pucks are permitted on Public Skates, but patrons are free to wear full hockey gear.
RULE REGARDING USING THE MIDDLE OF THE ICE
Please do not skate through the center of the rink in between the four cones. The center of the ice is for skaters in private lessons or those who are Basic 4/Adult 4 through Freeskate 1 level.
If you are unsure what Learn to Skate level you are at, please click on this curriculum sheet link for further information. If you are enrolled in our Learn to Skate classes, our Front Desk can look up what level you are currently in.
Playground on Ice is a special type of public skating session for 2-8 year olds to develop a love for skating! This is a great way to introduce young and inexperienced skaters to the ice. Kids can play with rubber ducks, foam hockey pucks, small sticks & nets. An adult chaperone is not required to skate with a child, but they are always welcome to join their kids.
Admission is $15 per child. Each child admission comes with one adult chaperone admission, as well as skate rental for both skaters. Each additional adult will be charged at an additional $15. On occasion we offer specialty events on Playground on Ice sessions that may have additional fees. This will be listed in the promotional material of those events such as themed holiday sessions.
If you have your own hockey stick or toys you'd like to bring, please do so! We do not allow hard hockey pucks for Playground on Ice.
Gloves are strongly recommended for all skaters (kids and adults). Helmets are encouraged but not required.
Always check the daily schedule for the most updated times.
Please note: We do not allow buckets, walkers, penguins, hard pucks, or chairs. We thank you for your understanding and hope you have a great skate with us!
