Centennial Lakes Park features a 10-acre lake that is groomed daily during the winter for ice skating. Spread out over three main ponds connected by narrow, meandering canals, the rink gives skaters a unique skating experience.
When Skating Opens
Current Status: Closed
Ice skating at Centennial Lakes Park usually opens for the season in late December depending on weather, and closes in mid-February.
The larger ponds require thicker ice, for safety, than the rinks at neighborhood parks. The ice is groomed and open to skating as soon as it's safe.
