Every admission includes complimentary skate rental. Sessions are 75 minutes long and begin every 45 minutes, with at least 60 minutes of guaranteed skating time.

The remaining time allows for scheduled Zamboni resurfacing to keep the ice smooth and enjoyable.

Skate Buddies

Add Extra Support to Your Skate

New to skating? Our Skate Buddies provide extra support and stability to help young and beginner skaters build confidence on the ice. Rentals are $15 per 75-minute session and can be reserved online or rented on-site, subject to availability. We recommend reserving online for weekends, holidays, and other busy times when quantities are limited.

03

Lockers & Storage

On-site lockers are available for $5–$8 per rental on a first-come, first-served basis.

Complimentary cubbies are available for shoes while you’re skating. Since they are open storage, we recommend using a locker for valuables.

Tip: Keep wallets, phones, keys, bags, and other valuables safely secured in a locker.

04

Weather Policy

We’re open rain or shine and operate in most weather conditions.

If weather creates an unsafe skating surface, sessions may be suspended or closed. Closed sessions will be rebooked for another available date during the current season.

Rain alone does not typically result in a closure. Refunds are not offered for rainy weather if the rink remains open.
