Ice Rink Coming Back To Wrigley

By Marcus Gilmer in Miscellaneous on Dec 9, 2009 7:20PM

Insert your "ice cold like [Cub's player]" joke here and lace up the skates, kids, because there's another ice rink opening soon and it's opening at Wrigley Field. The rink, located in the parking lot across the street from Wrigley's west side (along Clark), will open next Tuesday and remain open until the end of February. Admission will be $10 for adults and $6 for kids. The $300,000 cost of the rink will be paid for by a $100,000 from the Chicago Park District, $100,000 from the company Westrec (which operates other rinks in the city), and $100,000 in private donations, including some from the Cubs' new owners, the Ricketts family.
