Hey folks!  I'm always looking for new ideas and places to meet and have fun here in Pittsburgh.  I keep forgetting about the Schenley Skating Rink right up the road from where we normally meet on Thursday nights.

Thursday nights from 7-9pm is their "Family Night."  Admission is $4 to skate and they do have rental skates available for $2.50. (Hockey Skates are available for rent)

I'll give them a call this afternoon to see if mascot costumers would be allowed on the ice during the skate and post an update here with the information they give me.

This could be a lot of fun.  I'm looking forward to your input.

Thanks!

Sounds fun, I frequently take the kids and skate at Schenley. It's fun and cheap.

We should see about doing the mascot skate next year. We already missed it this year, it was January 15.

Plus we can try to recruit them to be furries! Freddy the fish (alcosan's mascot) would be a great addition to the fandom. I mean, how many fish furries do you see?

I'd love to do it, but I have class on Thursday nights.  =(  It's been so long since I've been ice skating...

Now that it's moved to March, I should definitely be in, and I'll bring the hatchlings, too.
