October rolls around again for National Roller Skating Month!
It’s a month-long celebration and awareness campaign to promote roller skating as a fun, healthy, inclusive recreational activity. President Ronald Reagan recognized October as National Roller Skating Month in 1983. This year’s campaign is “Lace Up, Wheels Down, Let’s Skate!”
Saturday Afternoons Return
It’s a great session for beginners, young families, and small groups. Doors open at 1:25 and we give a basic skating lesson at 2pm. We can teach you how to skate.
Admission is $9, skate rental $4.
We’ll celebrate National Learn to Skate Day on October 4. It’s the day many rinks across the country encourage beginners to come to the skating rink to learn to roller skate.
We’ve got you covered. Lace Up, Wheels Down, Let’s Skate!
