Hit the ice: Arlington Square Rink opens Friday, Nov. 27
The snow has begun to fall in the Sierra and Carson City anxiously awaits the return of the Arlington Square Ice Skating Rink at the corner of W. Robinson and N. Carson Streets. The day after Thanksgiving, Friday, Nov. 27, kicks off the season with three skate sessions to choose from: 10 a.m. - 1 p.m., 2 p.m. - 5 p.m., and 6 p.m. - 9 p.m.
Hockey and Figure Skates are available to rent at $3 per person, although you are welcome to bring your own. Each skate session is $7 for those over 13 years old. Youth ages 3-12 years old are only $5, but must be accompanied by an adult. Discounted Punch passes and group rates are available. The heated tent is also available to rent for private parties and includes a discount for skaters.
Please note: ice rink hours are dependent on weather and ice conditions. During inclement or unseasonably warm days, please call the Arlington Square Ice Rink HOTLINE at 775-283-7629 to check on conditions.
