Things have changed substantially since my last visit I believe in 2019. Another year at my…read morefamily's fundraiser celebration for a cousin that passed away from Epilepsy. Let's get right into it: I have never experienced a roller skating rink, where the DJ is cursing in between playing songs for people to skate to. SAY WHA!???!!! This is a place of recreational family fun with CHILDREN, seniors and other. Why in the world would you carry on in such a manner? WHY!? I just stood there with my mouth hanging open like "dear God this is not happening...Like why!?...". The music/the sound: The only way to describe in one word would be "horrible". Not sure at all what was happening with the speakers in this rink, but the music was distorted. Like having a huge speaker in the trunk of a vehicle and the music is muffled....kinda sketchy/grainy. When I think of the roller rink experience, music is a MAJOR part. That is what people skate to. Why does it sound so bad? I can't assume there are sound checks, lol. But how does one tell if the speakers and such are working at full capacity for a quality experience? *shrug* Lastly, the rental skates/skate room: I am not sure when half decent customer service went out the door, but it sure did make the process of obtaining skate rentals a chore. My family and I stood waiting for 10min for someone to assist us with getting skates. Just a long line of people standing around. Paid money to skate and no one is there to distribute the skates. Hellooooooo? Where are all the people!!?? I ended up having to go back to the front of the rink, finding someone, just to ask if someone would please send an employee to help all the people that were awaiting rental skates. *sigh* Once we received the skates, my 3 year old little cousin began to skate and the ENTIRE BACK OF THE SKATES WHEELS FELL OFF! Screws and all. Wow. Thank God she did not get injured and no one else. Imagine a small child skating, she falls because HER WHEELS FROM THE SKATE DETACH FROM THE SKATE. Yeah, that happened in real life. I will not lie, I was just disappointed to say the least. So, are these skates not getting "CALIBRATED and CHECKED"? No. It's a no. No way, no how. This is my experience. I tell no lies. I would suggest enter at your own risk. It was not a good time for me. And again, it was disappointing to say the least. Suggestion: Bring your own skates. Until next time friends :)

Very busy place, they had a bunch of kids parties and she still was kind to discuss skating options. Their busy day is Saturday. They do book parties. Sessions. There was a DJ. A lot of fun!!! Parking was across the street for free for customers. $9, session $4 skates. Concessions inside Another awesome business that's been in their community Taking care of their community and offering something so special and unique. Not only for our growing generations but the ones that enjoyed them as kids as well. It's a great place to be oneself and free. To enjoy music And a form of dance; just on wheels. You can enhance your balance abilities , you can gain encouragement in yourself. It's not a Team sport, so you determine your skill level. But it's fun. Kids love it. Adults also. Great for families. Awesome area. Definitely you should stop and enjoy it

We came here for a hockey game, but the Ninja Park is awesome!…read more For hockey, it was a nice rink with a raised adjacent bar with windows, so it made for a great viewing spot for the game. There's also a huge overlook where many of the spectators watched from, because the bleachers were not much higher than the glass. The only complaint is that there are only two stairwells to get to the balcony... one on the far side of the ice and one through the bar. Slightly challenging with little ones. As far as the Ninja Park, we didn't use it, but we were able to observe it from the lobby and it is quite the adventure! There were tons of inflatable spaces to jump, climb, and play on. There were long slides and trampoline areas and you could tell the kids were having a blast. The concession stand was hopping, here. The smell of the fresh pizza was awesome. The line for concessions was always packed and the prices were above average, but still reasonable. Lastly, the local police was handing out for a few hours while we were there, so it felt safe.

These days, it seems, they offer packages where people can rent out a party room along with ice time in the adjoining studio rink for the exclusive use of all the guests. The perfect setting for her hockey player beau. On the invitations, we were told to bring our sticks and pucks to shoot around on the ice if we liked, which surprised me a little because the studio I remembered in the past was not painted with blue lines, face off circles and creases. It is now. Anyhow, everyone had a blast. So much so that they had to peel a couple of us off the ice when our time was done. The party was a huge success and now we're thinking about renting the studio to have a mini game or two in the near future. Time to dust off the pads, I guess...and update my Blue Cross policy.

HF Ice arena has some of the best ice around for the serious skater. The ice is always…read moreimmaculately maintained, the arena is clean and bright, the staff is friendly and the store has a nice selection of both figure skating and hockey gear. They have a nice party room and a small studio rink that can both be rented for a reasonable cost for birthday parties and such. The only downside is their extremely limited public skate hours (currently only on Friday and Saturday nights for an hour and a half) which means it is often very crowded, and there is not a lot of freestyle time available either. A few years ago, the little HF ice arena was nationally known because its figure skating program was truly outstanding. The synchronized skating teams (the HF Icettes) occasionally won the ISI or USFSA national championship, and often took silver or gold medals, earning them frequent invitations to skate in professional ice shows such as Superstars on Ice, etc. Unfortunately, a couple of years ago, the park district stopped supporting the arena, and the Icettes disbanded. Its sad. Within a couple of years a great ice arena with a national reputation for its stellar figure skating program became a good ice arena that few have ever heard of. Still a great place to skate though, if you can get there during the few times they are open.

They do offer classes which I will take as well and we met one of the owners who was so gracious and he gave a friendly reminder that they do have lessons. We went on Sunday which was gospel skate day from 1pm-330 and it is free to the community. This is every Sunday! Donations are encouraged and if you need rentals it's $3. I think that is a tenfold blessing that they do that! This will be our go to after church. It was beautiful to see families skating of all ages! Loved seeing and feeling COMMUNITY:)

When I was here at the rink I had an awful and terrible experience! The staff seemed nice but were…read moreextremely heartless and cold. I pitched a ticket for 5$ at 7 and skated for a bit. While skating I thought the music was obnoxiously loud it read 89-93 on the online decibel reader. However the music became not just over stimulating, but nausea inducing. So I asked to step outside, they said yes but that they usually don't do it but, the one worker said if you need to get some air yes, which was the case. I stepped out for approximately 30 minutes and while that's a long time, why does it matter? Upon returning I was told I took too long and have to re pay to get in. Mind you I was told I was ok, if I had know it wasn't I would have stayed as I didn't drive myself. In the end I payed an additional 8 dollars as I had no other choice. It's a shame because I visited this place as a kid when I visited Chicago and had fond memories, now I will never return. Overall I had a terrible experience, received nothing but negative and cold energy. You never know what a costumer is going through. And in the opportunity to choose kindness and compassion they chose to do the opposite. (One worker though tried to help me shout out u! )
