The City of Bowie Ice Arena, closed for annual maintenance in May–June, officially reopened on July 6, 2025. As summer skaters reclaim the ice, two special “Skate in the Shade” sessions are scheduled for Wednesday, July 23 at noon and Wednesday, July 30 at 1 PM. These events feature free admission, a $2 skate rental fee, and sunny-season skin‑safety programming. Additionally, don’t miss the ongoing Two‑for‑One Tuesdays special—two admissions for the price of one at public skate sessions (skate rental $3). This summer lineup underscores Bowie’s commitment to inclusive, community‑focused recreation at Allen Pond Park’s beloved rink. Lace up, grab a friend, and enjoy cool fun.
