Get ready to lace up some skates and get out on the ice at the Rink at Ridge Ferry Park! The rink will open for 2026 on Tuesday, November 24th and will remain open through Monday, January 18th.
The ice rink will be bigger this year, says Laura Krause, Recreation Program Coordinator for Rome-Floyd Parks and Recreation. She adds that a beginner lane will be added for the benefit of new skaters.
There are also a number of skating aids in various sizes for younger kids (and adults in need).
The cost to skate will be $15 for adults and $12 for children under the age of nine. That includes skate rental. Group rates will additionally be available. The rink is also booking birthday parties, field trips, and group outings, says Krause, who adds that the complete details are featured on Rome-Floyd Parks and Recreation’s website.
Community members may visit www.rfpra.com to book a party and get more information.
Real ice and a real Zamboni will be used at the rink, enthuses Blake Lambert, RFPR’s Sports Manager.
Saturday, December 5th will be full of festivities as Rome-Floyd Parks and Recreation will host Ridge Ferry Holiday Fest. Families will enjoy the 2026 edition of Playtime with Santa and Mascot Party, a Candy Cane Hunt and the Holiday Vendor Market. They may go skating at the Rink at Ridge Ferry, as well as walk through the Tinsel Trail.
The public is encouraged to visit the website and/or search for Rome-Floyd Parks and Recreation on Facebook for regular updates on hours of operation at the rink.
