Public Skating Done for the Season
March 20, 2023
Over the last few weeks it seems like interest in public skating has lowered. We get it, we are ready for spring too! So it’s been decided that Sunday public skating is done for the season. We want to thank everyone that came out this winter and enjoyed the rink! It was so nice to see people out and having fun on the ice! The ice is still good though, and it is available for private rentals! If you are interested, call the village office during office hours to inquire about rates.
