Folks in the big city will have at least one thing to love about winter.

Opening Friday December 4th is The Rink at Thompson’s Point! Organizers took to Facebook to announce that this week they're making ice that will be ready for the opening ceremony at 3PM. Other structures apart of The Rink have also taken shape, including a (much needed) warming room.

Admittance is $8 per-person, and $2 to rent skates.

The 7,500 square-foot rink will be maintained by an ice resurfacer. This means no shoveling, open water and sticks and leaves that send you face first into the ice. It also features on-site food vendors and special hours for adult skating sessions complete with A BAR!

The rink will be open through February 21. More info can be found at The Rink's website.
