Historical February 1986 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
Fight that post-holiday, pre-Memorial Day, intra-tax season slump by joining us for the third annual “Evening on Ice” skating party on Sat., February 22, from 5:15 to 7:15 p.m. at Steinberg Memorial Skating Rink, Forest Park.
For two hours we will have to ourselves one of the largest outdoor rinks anywhere.
No long lines, no lift tickets!
Even if you don’t burn up the ice, you can keep warm next to a rink-side bonfire. Hot dogs and marshmallows will be provided for roasting, topped off with coffee, hot chocolate, and soft drinks. Would be hockey players are invited to bring their own weapons—er, brooms.
This outing, normally found in the Nieman-Marcus catalogue for $299.95, can be yours now for only $3.50, adults, and $1.50, children ages six to twelve. Children under six are free. Proceeds will be shared between Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council and the Friends of Steinberg, making your ticket contribution tax deductible. Steinberg Rink also offers skate rental (75¢), indoor lockers (25¢), and restroom facilities.
Please note that rink regulations (not to mention Bob Dingwillow’s sanity) require pre-paid reservations only.
No money can be accepted at the gate. Tickets may be obtained from the SDCC office at 6195 Washington Avenue or from one of our friendly local Board members: Arlene Webb, Paul Kurtz, Maverine Wilson, Susan Littlefield, Ginny Klevorn, Karleen Hoerr, John Riley, Kathleen Hamilton, Alan Wright, Bryan Gerard, Neville Vatcha, Eddie Sanders. Georgia Fox, Jim McLeod, Tony Hayes, Cathy Wobus, and Carl Stuart.
Please call the SDCC office, 862-5122, for further information. Hope to see you there!!
