Rules for Public Skating  

  • Skate at your own risk.

  • Hockey OR figure skates only. Speed skates are NOT allowed.

  • No figure skating during public skating.

  • No chasing other skaters or aggressive skating.

  • No inappropriate language will be tolerated. Those violating this policy
    will be asked to leave the Civic Center. Repeat offenses will face longer
    bans, up to and including permanent bans.

  • Skate in a counter-clockwise direction.

  • Respect the space of other skaters.

  • Watch out for beginner skaters. Preserve skate trainers for those that
    really need them.

  • No hockey sticks or pucks are allowed to be used in public skating.

  • Do not use your phone on the ice for any reason. Photos or videos are not allowed.

  • If asked to stop doing something by a Civic Center staff member, please do so. It's probably a safety issue.

All participants and parents of minors using the locker rooms, agree to hold the Saranac Lake Civic Center harmless and relinquish all claims as a result of any activity or issues resulting while using the locker rooms.
