Strawbery Banke Museum invites the community to come together for the 10th anniversary of Labrie Family Skate at Puddle Dock Pond. Join the Museum on Wednesday, December 11, 2024, from 6:00 to 8:30 PM (with a weather date of Thursday, December 12) to mark this milestone with an evening of skating, music, food, and drinks.

The rink is slated to open for the season on Friday, November 29, 2024 (weather-dependent), kicking off another exciting winter of outdoor skating.
This anniversary event will feature a live DJ, special performances by Ice Dance International, and a champagne toast. Each $95 ticket includes skating admission, skate rentals, hors d’oeuvres, two drink tickets (21+), and a commemorative ornament. Proceeds from the evening will support necessary upgrades to the rink, ensuring its continued role as a Portsmouth gathering place for years to come.
“Labrie Family Skate at Puddle Dock Pond has become an integral part of Portsmouth’s winter season and a gathering spot for residents and visitors alike,” said Linnea Grim, President and CEO, Thomas W. Haas Endowed Chair. “Bringing the rink to life 10 years ago was a true community effort, and we’re grateful to everyone who helped make it a reality. To celebrate this milestone, the rink committee has planned this event along with other special activities throughout the season.”
This celebration will not only honor a decade of winter memories but will also kick off a season of special events to further connect the community through skating.
