- Go on a non-holiday weekday for the combo ice slide and skate ticket, since it costs less than on weekends and holidays.
- Get to the rink early in your session if you need rental skates or gliders, because they're handed out first come, first served.

- Reserve a rinkside fire pit if you want somewhere to warm up with cocoa between turns on the ice and the slide.
