Support for Families is excited to announce that they are bringing back their FREE annual family ice skating party!

Come celebrate the holidays with us at the Yerba Buena Ice Skating Center – we will have the ice skating rink to ourselves, holiday snacks and a book giveaway. Skates will be provided for each guest, and wheelchairs are also welcome on the ice.

What we'll be doing:

Volunteers will assist Support for Families staff with:

  • Setup/Breakdown
  • Registration Table
  • Stamp Table
  • Skate Rental Booth
  • Locker Rooms
  • Ice Rink (helping to push children in wheelchairs or on chairs)

What you should know:

Wear warm layers especially if you plan to assist children on the ice.  If you have your own ice skates you are welcome to bring them.

Some of the activities will be outside on the lawn in front of the Yerba Buena Ice Center so it might be chilly inside and outside.
