Go ice skating at Thompson’s Point
The rink at Thompson’s Point in Portland opens in late November and stays open into March. The rink is 10,000 square feet of frozen awesomeness, and there are spots for you to warm up during your great skating adventure. For the under 12 set, Sammy’s Skate Pond is available for learning, and skating lessons are offered. If you don’t own skates, don’t fret; they rent them for $3.
