FAQs
You have questions, we have answers!
Below you’ll find important information about roller skating at our rink, throwing a birthday party, special event and group information, and general topics about what to expect during your visit.
Roller Skating
When are you open today and what will it cost?
Our schedule and admission price will vary depending on the day. The easiest way to know our schedule is to visit our schedule and events page.
How much does it cost to rent skates?
Skate rental is an additional $6.00 to the admission price listed for the date and time you choose to visit. Skate Rental is mandatory for those 2-17 years old without. Please note we do not offer rollerblades.
What does it cost if you are not skating?
All children ages 2 to 17 are required to pay the full admission of the session to come into the facility and the $6.00 skate rental fee if they do not have their own skates. Non skating adults (18yrs+) pay a $5.00 spectator fee in order to enter the facility.
What size skates do you have available for rent?
Adjustable are the smallest size we offer, which start at a toddler size 6. They are adjustable skates that can be worn by a toddler with their shoes on making their first roller skating experience more comfortable. All of our rental skates are Men’s sizes, and the largest skate size we carry is a men’s size fourteen.
What types of rental skates do you have?
We have regular roller skates, also known as quads. We do not offer rollerblade rental.
Can I bring my own skates?
You can bring your own skates with a few exceptions: They must have toe stops on quad skates, or heel breaks on inline skates. The wheels must also be clean, so if you use your skates outside you need to clean the wheels before using them in the facility. Finally the axles cannot extend outside of the roller skate wheel. This can cause serious damage to the skate floor. If you do bring your own skates, please be prepared to have them checked at admission before entering.
Can you tighten the wheels on our rental skates?
We cannot tighten the wheels on our skates. We want the wheels to be able to freely spin around the axle. If you or your child would like help with skating we do have skate mates to rent at an additional $7.00 rate (Plus tax) that provide extra stability when skating. Wrist guards are also available for use free of charge.
If my personal skates need to be adjusted or fixed do you have anyone available to make adjustments?
We are not allowed to make any adjustments or fix skates. Unfortunately we do not offer a pro-shop on site.
Will someone be available to help teach me or my child how to skate?
During every roller skating session we have certified and trained floor guards who control traffic in all areas of our skate floor. Our floor guards are trained to keep an eye out for everyone’s safety on the skate floor. If you need direct assistance on the skate floor we highly recommend that you rent a skate mate. Skate mates are walkers with wheels designed to help you keep your balance while skating and are available to purchase at our Stuff Shop area for only $7.00 (Plus tax). If you prefer lessons those are available during Saturday mornings only. For more information, see our drop-in skate lessons page.
Do you offer skating lessons?
Our Skate lessons are offered for all ages and all levels on Saturday Mornings from 10:30am-11:30am. After our skate lesson you are permitted to stay for our 11:30am-2:30pm session and practice what you learned. On Tuesdays from 6:00pm-7:00pm we offer Adult Advanced Lessons Only with Cory. After the advanced lesson you are permitted to stay for the 7:00pm-10:00pm Adult session. For more information please go here.

We have booked a birthday party, can we use our own decorations for the table?
Yes, we ask that you bring in your own decorations into our office a day before your party so that we can set up your assigned party tables. Keep in mind bringing in your own decorations consists of tablecloths, cups, napkins and plates. The only thing we ask is no confetti, silly string, pinatas, backdrops, characters or 360 cameras. If you wish to bring in your own decor the day of the party we will only be able to allow you and one guest to enter 10 mins prior for set up.
Is there food available for the adults that attend our child’s party?
Definitely, we have a full menu for you to order for your birthday party. You may order your items prior to the birthday party or even the day of the party. You will have a party host/hostess that will help you on the day of the party.
How early can we show up for our party?
We will attempt to open the doors 10 minutes before the scheduled start of the session. We suggest that all parties arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before the party.
