The rink is waking up from its off-season hibernation. Boards are going in, the space is getting its seasonal glow-up, and yes—ice is on the way. ❄️

Opening day is October 30 at 1 PM. Start preparing your best “I totally meant to fall like that” routine now.

See you on the ice.

Our automated floor scrubber is one of several cool automation upgrades we’ve made this year to keep our facilities in tip-top shape and free up staff for other responsibilities.

For those of you worried technology will replace us… this photo was taken at 1 AM because the robot set off the building alarm.

The future is here. And apparently, it comes with wake-up calls. 🤦🏼‍♀️
