Please note that we are OPEN on July 4th, come on in and skate with us!
Beginning on June 17th, the Wonderland of Ice family is thrilled to begin welcoming you back onto the ice and to the sports that we all know and love! Because we will be strictly adhering to the CDC and the Re-open Connecticut guidelines your experience with us will be very different. Our first priority is your safety, as well as that of our staff. Everyone entering the building will have their temperature checked and complete a COVID-19 symptom screening. We ask that skaters come dressed. Locker rooms and water fountains will not be available at this time. Areas will be provided for skate lacing.
We will not be able to welcome walk ins at this time. Space in all activities is very limited. SKATERS MUST make a reservation in advance and the link (SEE BELOW) for each activity will have the contact information to do this. Skaters will be allowed to enter the building 15 minutes prior to the start of their activity (after screening) and must exit the building 15 minutes after the completion of their activity. Masks or facial coverings must be worn at all times, except by skaters while training on the ice. Coaches must wear face coverings at all times. Skaters under the age of 12 may be accompanied by one chaperone, who must remain seated in the bleachers until their child is ready to exit the building. Anyone leaving the building during an activity, will not be allowed to re-enter. Everyone must observe the six feet apart social distancing dots throughout the facility.
We have all worked hard and sacrificed over the past three months Connecticut. Let’s all keep working together now so that we don’t back slide, we all stay healthy and can stay ON THE ICE!
please include the names of skater(s) when making reservations…
