Whether skating indoors or outdoors, Marshfield has two locations for winter fun. Grab your skates and head to these ice rinks:

Pickle Pond

Pickle Pond is a small public facility located outdoors on the corner of East Arnold Street and Peach Ave. Ice skating is completely free, and the warming house with bathrooms is open every day at select hours during the season.

During the dark evenings of winter, the lot is lit by powerful lights, and radio music plays when the warming house is open. The effect is magical when a light snow falls. Kids can have fun playing in the snow lining the edges of the rink, too.

Pickle Pond is normally open from mid-December to mid-February. The rink closes -20 degrees or colder windchill, when the ice is melting, or two inches or more of snow falls on weekends or after 1 p.m. on weekdays.

Rules can be found here. Note that dogs and smoking are not allowed, and the primary purpose of the facility is for general skating over figure or speed skating.

Warming House/Supervised Hours
Monday-Thursday: 5:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Fridays: 5:00 – 9:00 p.m.
Saturdays: 11:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Sundays: 1:00 – 8:00 p.m.

Hockey Rink

The hockey rink at the Marshfield Fairgrounds (Marshfield Area Ice Arena, 405 E. 17th Street) offers indoor skating in a controlled-temperature environment, ideal for frigid winter days when skating outdoors is too cold for comfort. See the schedule below for the 2017-18 season for public skating times. When schools release early or get cancelled, the rink opens from 1-3:15 p.m.

There is a small entrance fee with $1 admission for Dollar Skate days. Cost for adults is $3 for Marshfield residents with ID ($3.50 non-residents) and $2 for ages 3-17 ($2.50 non-residents). Members of the MYHA or Silver Laces get resident-priced admission.

No sticks or hockey pucks are allowed. The rink information line is 715-384-0025.
