Here’s something that's been talked about for years in Niagara Falls but finally is becoming a reality. In conjunction with the Winter Festival of Lights and The Niagara Parks Commission a real outdoor rink is being constructed on the lawn just behind the Table Rock area near the brink of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. The rink will be keep frozen by a refrigeration unit under its 60’ wide by 120’ long surface.
Here’s a bit more info:
It will be open Friday, November 23rd and operate from 10am until 10pm daily until February 28, 2010.
The rink will be enclosed with clear span panels that can be removed when the mist from the falls is not too heavy.
There will be a public address system and night lighting.
Bleachers will accommodate 200 people.
The fee for adults $8.00 (with skate rental $$9.99) Children $5.75 (with skate rental $7.99) children 6 and under free.
I can’t wait to try on a pair of skates!
