    It's pretty nice to have access to an ice skating rink nearby. Easy to get to, lots of parking…read more Decent hours for free skate, and other opportunities for hockey and lessons. When we got in it really wasn't clear where to go. For a first timer it was confusing. Cost was pretty steep with rentals. And the rental skates were uncomfortable at best. But it's a fun trip, worth trying with kids or friends.

    The good is that kids skate and have fun and it's mostly run by nice people however today at 7:30…read moreit was 80° and I asked somebody behind a very thick pane of glass why the air-conditioning isn't on she said what air? This is the town run building and then I could feel the breeze from inside her a little office. It's going to be 97° and they will be bringing campers inside to get them out of the heat outside and it will be just hot inside . They absolutely have an ability to cool the building down otherwise they would have a melted ice rink Lol Bethpage Rinx has air conditioning all summer . When I looked it up, this is what it says :While not explicitly requiring air conditioning, the need to maintain acceptable indoor air quality and manage humidity levels in indoor skating rinks, particularly those using resurfacing machines, often necessitates the use of robust ventilation systems that may include air conditioning or other cooling components. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes this may include equipping facilities with two ventilation units, one for the rink and one for public areas. Important Note: Specific local codes and ordinances within individual towns and counties may impose additional requirements regarding air conditioning or indoor climate control in public buildings, so checking with the relevant local authorities is always advisable.

    Two sheets of ice at this rink, with some time for hockey and figure skating with the Westchester…read moreFigure Skating Club. Ice quality, though, could use some work. Not very smooth per the skaters coming off that were more advanced. The beginner coaches here are very friendly, per some of the other parents, otherwise kids are coming for the freestyle practice sessions ($25) - you can pay online or in-person (though that's slower). The two sheets are the American and Canadian ice sheets. The main lobby has some wooden benches for skaters to put on gear, but if you want a table to work as an adult, go upstairs to the "cafe-ish" and viewing areas over the rinks (which is nice). Need a few more outlets, but you can find a few to charge up your phones/laptops.

    The Westchester Skating Academy is the premier ice skating and hockey rink facility in the…read moreWestchester area. In addition to two full sized hockey rinks and skate rentals, it has a hockey and skate shop inside, and a lounge and snack bar upstairs known as Snackish. Snackish Cafe & Grill includes wholesome breakfast, lunch and snacking fare, and specialties like soups to warm you up when you're getting off the ice. I love the hot chocolate with marshmallows, whipped cream, and chocolate syrup with some brown sugar pop-tarts to warm me up and satisfy my sweet tooth. Staff is friendly and there are plenty of tvs upstairs to watch whatever hockey game is on or other sporting event.
