Timpanogos Ice Skating Rink Set to Open This Weekend
American Fork – The Timpanogos Ice Skating Rink’s Grand Opening will be held on Saturday,
Dec. 20, at the Art Dye Sports Complex, located at 1000 North 550 E. Street, in American Fork.
The seasonal outdoor skating facility, sponsored in part by the City of American Fork, will run from
Dec. 13 to April 15, 2015. The event was originally planned for Dec. 13, but due to warmer-thanusual temperatures, the opening had to be postponed.
The rink will be the only ice rink located between Salt Lake City and Downtown Provo, making it
convenient for residents of South Salt Lake County and Northern Utah County.
“This is just one more thing that adds to the charm of our community. This will be a spot for a lot
of fun and will provide great memories for families and friends. ” said American Fork City
Councilman Clark Taylor.
“We hope that opening the Timpanogos Ice Rink at Art Dye Park each year will add to that
nostalgic feeling while providing another great option for convenient, seasonal entertainment for our
residents, and residents from surrounding areas.”
Admission for all ages is $8 per person, including skates, or $6 per person if you bring your own
skates. Groups of 20 qualify for a discounted rate of $5 per person (with or without one’s own
skates.)
Hours will be: 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Friday; noon to 10 p.m., Saturday; and closed on
Sunday. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day hours will be from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. (both nights).
The Grand Opening, hosted by the American Fork Chamber of Commerce, will feature a ribbon
cutting, refreshments, a prize drawing and music, and Santa will be there for photos (that will be
uploaded to Facebook.) For updated information, events and holiday hours visit
