Skating Tips & Rules
-
To ensure best skating experience appropriate winter clothing should be worn while skating.
-
Skates should be 1/2 to 1 size smaller than the skater’s street-shoe size. Skaters should wear one pair of THIN socks or tights for maximum support. A skate should be unlaced before being put on, and then tightly relaced. If a skater’s heel lifts up and down or there is inadequate ankle support, a smaller ice skate should be worn. If toes feel cramped in the skate boot, a larger size should be worn.
-
Rinks reach capacity on weekends and holidays. Please plan to arrive early.
-
Children 8 and under must be accompanied by someone 16 or older.
