DIY Backyard Ice Rink
Posted by Meta-Dad under cool schtuff , dad recomendation , games , kids activity
Props to John over at My Family Loves It!. Here’s directions for how to create a skating rink in your backyard. At least this way you don’t have to worry about the kids falling through the ice at the local pond and you’ll always know where they are - they’re in your backyard!
Directions are complete with tips on how to keep that hose from freezing and how to make a Rink Rake for under $20 bucks using PVC and some PVC cement and primer, sweet! Thanks John!

Thanks for the link. Still plenty of winter left for anyone who wants to setup a rink. We got ours up early this year, but had that end of December thaw. Have good ice now and staged our own skills competition this weekend using scrap 2×4 blocks for targets and obstacles.
