Background and Analysis:
On November 16, the Parks, Arts & Recreation Department will be opening a seasonal ice rink in downtown Olympia. Oly on Ice will be open seven days a week through January 6, 2019, with special hours during school winter break and on holidays. With special programming like Nutcracker on Ice, Pride Night, and Ugly Sweater Night, there will be something new and different to enjoy each time residents come to the rink.
