This is a fun place to come ice skating. My kids love it and there is ample seating so I can watch from above. We have taken lessons from here several times and all the instructors have been awesome. They have lessons for all ages. They have snacks that are reasonable priced as well. They rent skates for the whole family and they just recently added a second rink so open skating is not near as crowded as before.

Great place on the Weber State U campus for public open ice skating or to watch a Mustang’s hockey game! Plenty of seating and a number of food and drink vendors available depending on the event. My step-son also comes here for practice and games on his Jr. Hockey league. Great family venue!

Today was my son and daughters fifth skating lesson at the ice sheet. I watched their tiny little bodies glide out onto the ice with confidence, bypassing the teachers offered hand and stopping in position with their assigned groups, for my daughter Snowplow 1 and for my son Basic 1. They put their arms out like ice skaters, hop without falling, twist back and forth, spin in slow but nicely executed circles, and have learned how to stand up properly after taking a spill. In my sons group they even skate backwards! If all they learned from these lessons was confidence on the ice, I would have been thrilled but they are so so much further than that in only one set of 45 minute lessons, once a week. I couldn’t be happier with the teachers, the assistants, the organization, and the skills they have learned. My daughter is rather clingy at times; there is nothing she would like to be doing more than hugging, hanging on your leg, or holding your hands and the teachers are kind but firm with her– showing her she must do it on her own, and guess what? She does. That kind of hands off approach is something I’m not the best at– I’m a big softy. I’d have a hard time saying no and watching her struggle; but this is how we learn. In my sons class they have made a large circle and they are hopping as high as their legs will take them, spinning with their arms stretched out like they are future Olympians, and there is a smile on every childs face. In my daughters group they are scooping up «fish» out of a blue«pool» on the ice and carrying them across the ice. They are having so much fun it never occurs to them they are learning how to squat on the skates, stand back up, and get faster with every trip. When they fall, their only concern is getting back up so they can go scoop another fish. After the first lesson, I never saw another child in tears– pretty impressive when you consider there are give or take a few, about sixty kids out there giving it their all. We have a yearly family pass to come to open skate(this too I am so very happy with, its fabulous exercise that the whole family can be involved in and have a great time doing) and I now am so much happier coming to skate with my kids, not having to hold their hand the whole time and allowing them the freedom to safely skate around on their own. As I type this they are wrapping up their lesson by playing ring around the rosy — boys versus girls. Who can yell loudest? I think the boys win… but fewer girls fell, take that boys! The cost is only $ 40 per student and includes their skate rental, and six chances to come to free skate in addition to their lessons to practice. We were given $ 10 off coupons at a Mustangs game so it came to only $ 60.00 for both of my kids lessons, that’s only $ 5.00 per lesson per child; an absolutely wonderful deal considering the skills they have picked up.

The Ogden Ice Sheet is a great place to get in and skate. The fees are reasonable if not plain cheap, and they sell hot cocoa which I find to be a must. Also, did I mention that teaching your date to skate is the best way to get to know them? I suppose you could call it a ‘hands on’ experience.

This review is more than the facility! My son and I came here for his hockey tournament. We had a great time! Everyone were very friendly, The Ice Sheet was an impressive place, had an opportunity to meet Bobby Hull. The Ice Sheet looks like a great place to hold many things than just hockey. We will never forget this trip!
