Make this a Winter of Awesome
Seeing your kids head outside and glide around the backyard is pretty awesome. When you have friends over or host your family Christmas tell everyone to bring their skates. Feel absolutely zero guilt in drinking gallons of hot chocolate this winter - you'll burn it off on the ice!
Get the Know-How
Don't worry about all the minutea of building the rink; I've already made all the mistakes for you. I can help you estimate how much it will cost, how much water it will take and the best temperatures to make ice. Trust me - from personal experience - your neighbors, and perhaps your local friendly bylaw officer - will not appreciate a failed pour!
Embrace the Cold
There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing choices! Even in the depths of winter we encourage our kids to be outside and join them in outdoor activities. Adding a rink to your back yard is a great way to add seasonal fun for your family and friends.
