Ice Skating this weekend?

[dreamshark]

So far, none of the outdoor skating rinks in the metro have opened (except for the one by Landmark Center that is artificially cooled). I just called all the weather hotlines, and most of them aren't even announcing any plans yet, just "closed." However, the absolutely FINE-looking Centennial Lakes Rink, which has an unusually chatty recorded message, is tentatively planning to open on Friday or Saturday if the colder weather continues.

I haven't skated there before, but from the picture it looks like the best outdoor rink in the area - even better than the (closed) Lake of the Isles rink. here, take a look!

Anybody want to try it out, assuming it stays cold? Unlike The Depot, this one is FREE.
