GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – The prices are in for how much it will cost to sled and skate in the shadow of Lambeau Field.
The Titletown District’s ice skating rink is set to welcome skaters this week during the district’s Winter Jubilee, while the Ariens snow hill is still waiting on favorable weather conditions for snow making.
The Winter Jubilee will kick off Thursday with the grand-opening of the ice staking rink, 46 Below bistro and Rockwood Terrace event space.
The first day of the month-long celebration will also include an inaugural Winter Jubilee Light Show, a visit from Santa Claus and ice sculptors.
All Winter Jubilee events are open to the public.
Individual weekday admission to ice skate at Titletown is $5. The weekend cost is $7 and a holiday or gameday is $9. To rent skates is $5.
A few select Mondays there will be reduced prices for community nights.
A family of four package to ice skate is $38 during the week and $45 on weekends.
Aaron Popkey, the Packers Director of Public Affairs, tells FOX 11…..
“The time you have is unlimited, so say you come over and you skate a couple hours and then you want to grab a meal and skate for a couple more hours after that, you can do that here.”
Sledding isn’t open yet, but a single ride down the hill is $5, expect on a holiday or gameday when it is $7. Unlimited sledding costs $10, except it is capped at three hours on weekends.
A family of four sledding package is $35 and $38 on weekends.
“To sled all day for $10 is an awesome deal,” said Susan Tegen of Howard.
“The ice skating doesn’t seem too bad, but the single ride for the sledding definitely seems a little bit pricey at least for one,” said Drew Greaves of Green Bay. “I almost feel like I’m forced to get the unlimited.”
“It’s something that we looked at with respect to what was available at similar facilities across the country, elsewhere around the state and really in our community,” said Popkey.
One similar sledding hill is Kewaunee County’s Winter Park.
Its web site says it has 2 hours unlimited sledding for $8. The Packers is $10. The two hills both have family packages at $35.
