Public Skating

The Ford Ice Centers are committed to developing a safe plan for the return of athletes, guests and clients to our facilities. We have implemented new precautionary procedures based on CDC and local, state and federal guidelines. Individuals at a high-risk of complications from COVID-19 are encouraged to stay home, guests and clients are required to wear personal protective equipment and administrative controls and social distancing is always mandatory.

The following general health and safety protocols are currently in effect at both Ford Ice Centers:

• Facial coverings must be worn properly over the nose and mouth at all times in the facility, including while skating.
• Guests must social distance throughout the facility and while skating.
• Guests must follow all facility directional signage.
• All guests and participants must check in with the front desk upon arrival at Ford Ice Center.
• The first floors of Ford Ice Center Antioch and Bellevue are open. The second floors remain closed.
• All guests must sign a Facility Access Waiver before entering. Guests without a signed waiver will be asked to step outside to fill out the document.
• There will be no buckets provided for public skate.
• Helmets will not be provided by Ford Ice Center.
• Guests will not be allowed in the facility until 30 minutes before the start of the public skate session.
• Benches will be closed during all public skate sessions. Participants should utilize chairs in the lobby while taking breaks. Skates are not permitted in the bleachers. All policies are subject to change or reversal. Guests who are not following all Ford Ice Center Policies will be asked to leave immediately without refund.
