Open since Saturday, Sept 15, 2007.
Indoors -
Located in Great Neck, Long Island.
Typical full sized rink.
The ice here is very nice and you won't be disappointed if you skate here.
Although this an indoor rink it's quite cold inside -
usually much colder than it is outside - so bundle up.
Hockey, figure, and speed skaters are all welcome.
Sunday night there is an adult session which is a good time to
improve your skating skills -
you won't need to watch out for the future
Gretzkys and can focus on your training.
There is a food service for break time
and a skate shop for emergency repairs.
If it's too cold out on the ice you can
hang out by the fireplace (fire not guaranteed)
and warm up.
The music is variable -
depends on what radio station the skate guards like -
also, walkmans are permitted.
Skate rental is available.
Coin lockers cost 25 cents.
Parking is free.
It's probably best to drive here,
but you can take the
LIRR
to the
Great Neck
station and a cab, as well.
