If you live in PG or MoCo and are a college student, then it’s $5 (incl. admission and skate rental). If you live in PG or MoCo and are not a college student, then it’s $11 ($7 admission + $4 skate rental). If you live outside of PG or MoCo, then it costs $2 extra. They offer a group rate, but I don’t want to coordinate all that (sorry!). Check their <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.pgparks.com/facilities/herbert-w-wells-ice-rink-building">website</a> for full details.

No gifts pls, your presence itself is a present. If you are in the spirit of giving, I encourage you to contribute to any of the following funds: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.gofundme.com/s?q=pg+irc">Prince George’s County Immigrant Rights Collective</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://omnatigray.org/donations/refugees/">Omna Tigray,</a> or <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://linktr.ee/indigenousumd">Indigenous UMD</a>.What if I’m not a good ice skater?That’s okay! Tbh I’m a mediocre and slow ice skater, but I still find it fun. You can skate as little or as much as you like. There’s space to sit surrounding the ice rink. Also we’re going during public skate hours, so other ppl of varying ages and abilities will be there!What if I can’t commit to the whole four hours?That’s also okay! You’re welcome to join whenever you can, whether it’s just for ice skating, just for dinner, just for a bit of both, or the entire extravaganza.
