Tips & Advice
- Book a session online in advance because rink capacity is limited and sessions may sell out.
- Arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled skate time to check in and get fitted, since late arrivals cannot make up missed skating time.
- Have everyone in your group complete the online waiver before arrival to avoid holding up check-in.
- Remember to wear socks, which are required for skating, and dress warmly for the open-air rink.
- Check local weather before setting out, because the rink closes when outdoor temperatures reach 20 degrees or lower.
