Use your wheelchair, an ice sled, a skate walker, ice grippers, or conventional skates on the ice. Spin, slide and play gently competitive games! There will be pucks and colorful balls to shoot around, obstacle courses, races, and a tower of blocks to crash down!
The rink is cold, so please dress warmly and bring your winter coat, gloves or mittens, and a hat!
This program is for people with disabilities, their families, support staff, and friends. All are encouraged to join on the ice to help support! Yaktrax (ice grippers) are available in the lobby for those that can’t skate.
Pre-registration is required. You must request to register by 12 p.m. two days before the program. You must sign up for a time slot and can skate for one hour.
