12/19/2025 - Oly on Ice, Gift Ideas, Winter Volunteering, and more...

As we move into winter break hours at Oly on Ice, be sure to check olyonice.com for the most up-to-date schedule. Weather-related closures and updates are shared on our Twitter channel and Facebook group. Tickets and Season Passes are available online.

You can also take advantage of our Holiday Gift Bundle - purchase an ice rink gift certificate and receive $5 off a beanie - available in person during regular rink hours through 12/31!

Our winter recreation catalog is full of ways to stay active, try something different, or shake off the seasonal slump. From leagues and fitness to dance, mindfulness, and youth programs, there's plenty to jump into as the year gets rolling.

If you are looking for a meaningful gift, recreation program gift certificates and donations to Ina's Scholarship Fund offer a way to support experiences and help make programs accessible to more members of our community.
