Posted on October 29, 2023 by Dina Miller

'Tis the season when friends and family will be coming to visit for one of the upcoming holidays, or during a school break.  We want to not only show our guests a good time, but also introduce them to the places that make Indiana's Cool North a great place to live!  And we have suggestions to help you make the most of your time.

Ice Skating in Downtown Crown Point and Deep River Waterpark

Ice Skating in Downtown Crown Point and Deep River Waterpark

 

When summer fades, Deep River Waterpark undergoes a magical winter shift, turning into an inviting ice skating destination! The Ice Plaza welcomes skaters Thursday through Sunday, starting from late November through January, weather permitting. Don’t miss the Friday night “Skate the Soundtrack” to your favorite shows during December and January.

Between mid-November and early March, the City of Crown Point hosts ice skating rinks at Bulldog Park. These rinks are accessible whenever the ice reaches a solid, frozen state.
