~ New Rochelle, NY - For the second year in a row, the City of New Rochelle is bringing the magic of outdoor skating to Lincoln Park for mid-winter vacation week. This year, the park will feature a giant pop-up synthetic rink that is three times the size of the popular rink at the Holiday Market. The rink will be open daily from 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM for eight days, starting on February 15 and ending on February 22, 2025.

Guests can enjoy free skating with rentals provided at no charge. Additionally, the first 100 visitors each day will receive a complimentary cup of hot chocolate upon entry. This event is made possible by District 3 Council Member David Peters, who first proposed the idea to the City Council back in 2023.

Peters expressed his excitement for this event and encouraged residents to take a break from their daily routines and enjoy some quality time with family and friends. "Once again we gather together on this sacred ground known today as Lincoln Park to build and maintain community life," said Peters.

City Manager Will Melendez also shared his enthusiasm for this event, stating that it will be a great opportunity for families to have fun and get some exercise during winter break. "We're excited for this dynamic pop-event of iceless skating on a safe synthetic surface in the Lincoln corridor to be enjoyed by residents and families citywide while our schools are closed for February break," said Melendez.
