Well, there's one reason to be happy the cold weather has finally come down upon us - The Blue Cross RiverRink re-opens Thanksgiving weekend...and ice skating in 60 degree weather is just unnatural. The RiverRink opens at noon of the 25th - admission is $6 and skate rental is an additional $3. However - if you bring a new, unwrapped toy to donate to the B101/NBC 10 "Stockings for Kids" drive - you'll get one dollar off admission, giving you a chance to skate in the cold while still feeling warm and fuzzy inside. The RiverRink is located on Columbus Blvd. and Market Streets, Penns Landing.
