Wheaton Ice Arena Event Will Introduce People to Hockey, Speedskating and Figure Skating

On Sunday, Sept. 17, the Wheaton Ice Arena will hold an open house from 9-11 a.m. in an effort to educate those interested in ice sports and other related activities. Stations for hockey, speedskating, and figure skating will be set up throughout the rink.
