Cue up some Vince Guaraldi: A new pop-up ice skating rink outside Park City Center mall saw its first skaters Friday afternoon.
Flight on Ice at Park City Center features a 60-by-100-feet recreational outdoor skating rink outside the former Bon-Ton retail space, heated tents and food and beverages for sale. The rink is a collaboration between Flight Entertainment, Discover Lancaster, the Lancaster Chamber of Commerce and Park City Center.
Friday’s first skate session was preceded by a ribbon-cutting event with brief remarks by organizers; the rink’s opening day also offered a DJ, giveaways and raffle prizes.
The opening, originally planned for Dec. 2, but delayed due to weather.
Attendees may bring their own skates or rent them for a fee.
Weather permitting, the ice rink’s schedule is: 4-8 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays; 4-10 p.m. Fridays, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sundays. Hours are expanded around the holiday season; for most updated schedules, check the rink’s website at flightonice.com.
