The Wheaton Ice Arena will hold an open house from 9-11 a.m. on Sunday, Sept. 17, that will provide opportunities to learn about and try ice sports and activities. Stations will be set up to assist those who want to find out more about ice sports such as hockey, speedskating and figure skating.
The Wheaton Ice Arena is located at 11717 Orebaugh Ave. in Wheaton. The Open House is free, but there is a $4 per person fee to skate (which includes skate rental) which represents half of the usual price.
The open house will have representatives of clubs that operate at Wheaton Ice Arena. There will be information available on group lessons, birthday parties, camps and clinics.
“The Open House is a great opportunity for members of the community to learn about and experience ice skating and ice sports” said Kimberley Ransfield, the Wheaton Ice Arena facility manager. “There will be lots of information available for those looking to join a team or club or who are interested in taking group lessons.”
