Are you ready to show off a mean figure on ice or have some budding hockey players? If so, January’s arctic temperatures and recreation departments have teamed up to allow some fancy footwork or family-friendly ice skating.

Recreation directors in three communities weighed in by email on Jan. 21 to Westbrook-Gorham Now on their available outdoor skating opportunities. One community even provides a warming hut.

Gorham Recreation Director Cindy Hazelton said the town has free skating available at Narragansett Ice Rink, 284 Main St., and at Little Falls Recreation Area behind the Old Robie School, 668 Gray Road. Hazelton said the Little Falls rink has been “cleared and open for use.” She planned to check later Wednesday on the condition of the Narragansett rink.

Skates are available for rent in Gorham for $5 per day or $15, weekends. Children’s sizes 1-8 are available, and adult sizes 8-12. For skate rentals in Gorham, call 222-1630.

Two rinks are also available in Standish. Matthew Duplisea, director of parks and recreation, said skating is available at Johnson Field Park, 89 Chadbourne Road, and also at Mill Street Park, 6 Mill St., in Steep Falls. “Both are free to the public and have lights that are set to turn off around 10 p.m. each night,” Duplisea said.

He also said the Johnson Field location has a small warming hut and select sizes of skates that can be borrowed.

In Westbrook, Greg Post, director of community services, said the city has an outdoor skating rink at 637 East Bridge St. and it is free and open to the public, but has no skate rentals.

In Buxton, a rink at Bonny Eagle Middle School is not operational. “The ice rink has not been set up this year,” said Sandra Cormier, executive assistant to the MSAD 6 superintendent.
