Lace up your ICE SKATES in Clarksville!

The new Ford Ice Center at the F&M Bank Arena is up and running! And starting this May or June the rink will be open for public skating events!

As of now the rink is open for scheduled events of ice hockey and will be available for figure skating as well. What a wonderful opportunity for kids to be able to hone their skills on a beautiful ice rink!

If you could use some lessons those will be available too through the Scott Hamilton Academy Learn to Skate Programs. For more information on the classes click HERE.

As one who grew up with an ice rink nearby, this is wonderful news! So many memories of skating with friends and learning a fun skill. The day you learn to skate backward is a BIG DEAL. LOL

Here is the scheduled sign-up of events at Ford Ice Rink so far.
