Again, the crew did a fantastic job last night but the warm sun and temperatures made the ice surface extremely soft. I skated the 1 pm – 3 pm public session and my blades were sinking in. They are planning to open tomorrow based on weather conditions, but we will keep you posted. Just for […]

The Ice Report – March 7 2020

March 8, 2020December 10, 2020 lpskater 0 comments

RATING (from 1-10 with 10 being the best): 9 The crew has really been outdoing themselves this week. Today’s ice was smooth and fast, with a few “soft spots” (unavoidable due to the warm sun) but the majority of the surface was excellent.

RATING (from 1-10 with 10 being the best): 9 The crew has been working really hard on the ice quality. The very outer edge was a bit rough but otherwise, the entire surface was smoother and faster.

The Ice Report – March 2 2020

March 3, 2020December 10, 2020 lpskater 0 comments

RATING (from 1-10 with 10 being the best): 7.5 Considering the weather, the ice was pretty good. There was a bit of water on the surface in spots from the rain and the surface was a bit slower than usual but still smooth.
