Tips for a successful skating experience
Dress Warm
We have no idea how cold it might be Friday evening. Dress in layers and don't forget your gloves and hat to stay warm while you skate!
Bring a Helmet
For those less familiar with skating, we recommend wearing helmets for added safety. If you have them at home, bring them along! Otherwise, see the rental information above.
Sharpen Your Skates in Advance
While sharpening services are at the MCC, sharpening your own skates ahead of time can help you maximize your time on the ice so you can dodge any potential lineups.
