## About

Embrace the start of the winter holiday season with family ice skating at Arctic Edge Ice Arena, central Oklahoma's premier indoor ice facility. On the day after Thanksgiving, Arctic Edge hosts special extended public skating sessions welcoming skaters of all experience levels. Upbeat holiday music fills the arena as families glide across twin NHL-sized sheets of smooth, freshly resurfaced ice. Beginner skaters and little children can utilize sturdy skate-trainer aids shaped like friendly seals and walkers to build balance and confidence on the ice. Skates are available for rent from toddler size 8 through adult sizes. Parents who prefer to watch can relax in heated spectator bleachers with hot cocoa, making it an active and memorable Thanksgiving holiday tradition for families looking to burn off Thanksgiving dinner energy.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Rubberized flooring throughout the lobby and rink perimeter accommodates strollers; viewing areas are wheelchair and stroller accessible.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Heated lobby concourses provide clean restrooms with changing tables and snack bar booth seating for nursing mothers.
• Age Suitability: Welcoming all ages from toddlers learning on double-runner skates to seasoned teen skaters and adults.
• Sensory Tips: The arena is cool and brisk (around 55°F); warm jackets, gloves, and thick socks are recommended. Holiday music plays at moderate family-friendly volumes.
