About the Rink
The Copeland Park Community Alliance has operated a free outdoor skating rink in Greenlawn Park for over a decade. Each winter, a team of dedicated volunteers floods, maintains, and monitors the rink so that neighbors of all ages can enjoy skating right in the neighborhood.
What to Expect
- Free admission — open to everyone in the community
- Maintained ice surface — flooded regularly to keep conditions good
- Family-friendly — popular with kids learning to skate and adults looking for a fun outing
How Volunteers Help
We need help with:
Evening and weekend flooding usually at 8pm (less than 60 minutes depending on numbers)
- Snow clearing after snowfalls, before flooding
- General upkeep — checking ice conditions and reporting issues
No experience required — we’ll show you the ropes. Even one or two shifts a season makes a big difference!
Conditions & Closures
Ice conditions depend on the weather. The rink is closed when temperatures rise above freezing or when ice is unsafe.
