Pittsfield Ice Rink Now Open

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The long-awaited ice skating rink is finally open for free public skating. 
 
Although late in the season, the rink will be open with posted hours from dawn to dusk, but may be closed at times for maintenance of the ice. 
 
Since the rink is equipped with lighting, the city has no objections to night skating; however, skaters are urged to remain mindful of safety, said James McGrath, park, open space and natural resource program manager.
 
It was previously reported that the city received a grant to offer skate rentals. However, because of the shortened season, this initiative has been postponed to future years.
 
The outdoor 50-by-100-foot refrigerated rink will be able to stay open until the ambient temperature rises above 45 degrees, McGrath said. 
 
This is currently projected to be the third week in March but could be sooner based on the weather conditions, he said. 
 
During the development of this initiative, many event ideas were tossed around however those will also have to wait until future seasons because of the shortened season.
