This has been made possible through the generosity of The WaterWheel Foundation.
According to a press release from the Project Manager for Virgin Islands Search and Rescue (VISAR) Winter Wonderland, Julie Schneider, the skating rink will open from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
Schneider said it is a community event and all are encouraged to attend.

Starting at 12:00 pm, reservation hosts will be available to assist guests in scheduling skating sessions. Persons can stop by the rink in person or call 441RINK.
Additionally, walk-up guests are also welcome on the night of the event,
The public is advised that guests can only book one skating session per person and persons must walk with socks or purchase a pair for $5. Anyone under 6 years of age must be accompanied by an adult on the ice. Also, guests must arrive 15 minutes before their skating session to sign the liability waiver; if guests are late their spot will be given to persons on the waiting list.
VISAR’s Operation Manager, John Phillip Aspinal said: “I am so happy and pleased to be a part of this event that has become a Christmas staple for the community of the BVI particularly the families. I don’t think anyone can deny the happiness on their faces as they skate, fall down and get back up again; the smile never goes away. I am convinced they make new friends as they help each other around the rink.”
