Why Coffman Park Ice Rink why was this picked
Coffman Park Ice Rink is free natural ice that Dublin opens only after several days in a row below freezing, so some winters it barely runs. When it is open, hours are 3 to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekends and days without school. The pavilion fireplaces are kept stoked for warming up. There are no skate rentals, hockey is not allowed, and signs along Coffman Park Drive announce when the ice is open.
- Free admission on natural ice
- Pavilion fireplaces for warming up
