Port Angeles, Washington, Dec. 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Strap on a pair of ice skates and pirouette your way across the Olympic Peninsula's only outdoor ice skating rink this holiday season in Port Angeles, Washington. The Winter Ice Village – located in downtown Port Angeles across from Odyssey Bookshop – is open seven days a week through January 6, 2019.
Admission to the Winter Ice Village is free, and full-day skate rentals are $15 for adults and $10 for kids, vets and seniors. Skates, helmets and fun skating aids for the little ones are included in the rental fee. If you bring your own skates, you get $3 off the price for skating.
