Get the gang together, put on a cute hat and your warmest mittens, lace up those skates, and hit the ice! There’s something about skating in the snow that’s just a little bit magical. We’ve got several places around the Milwaukee area for you to enjoy skating outside as winter arrives in full force. Remember, be safe out there and make sure an ice rink has been officially opened by the park before skating.
