Free Family Day skating parties set for Sunday and Monday at Ted Reeve Arena

Local residents will have two opportunities to take to the ice at Ted Reeve Arena and do some skating this Family Day long weekend.

On Sunday, Feb. 18, Beaches-East York Councillor hosts his Family Day long weekend skating party from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

In his recent newsletter, Bradford said he was happy to have the event taking place at Ted Reeve Arena once again as the facility had been closed for many months last year due to major “state-of-good-repair renovations”.

“We are all thrilled to see it reopen and excited to give more families a chance to lace up and check it out,” said Bradford.

There will be treats and hot chocolate available at the free skate on Feb. 18.

A second opportunity for skaters takes place on Family Day itself (Monday, Feb. 19) as the Toronto Beaches Lions Club host a free Family Day Skate on Monday, Feb. 19, from 3 to 5 p.m.

There will be hot chocolate and other treats available for participants.
