Ice Skating Tips:

If ice skating is not a normal occurrence for you, here are some tips for your trip to the rink:

• Tighten Up Those Laces – You’ll be less likely to fall if the skates fit snuggly around your ankles.
• Dress In Layers – An ice skating rink next to a frigid pond is a chilly place to be, but you may want to shed a layer after a few laps around the rink.
• Don’t Look Down – It’s tempting to look at your feet, but keep your head up so you don’t collide with any fellow skaters.
• Practice Stopping – Practice putting the brakes on, it’s less painful than crashing into the wall.
• Dress Appropriately – Your pants should be fitted enough that they don’t trip you up. Also, don’t forget to wear socks.

• Masks required for patrons and employees on and off the ice unless enjoying concessions
