All Three City Skating Ponds Open

For the first time this winter, all three of the City’s skating ponds are open and safe for skaters. Lakeside Park pond is open for the following hours: Weekdays 4 - 9pm and weekends noon – 4pm. The E. Swinney Park and Reservoir Park ponds were also cleared and hockey goals are set up.

Staff from the Parks & Recreation Department check ice conditions daily at E. Swinney, Reservoir and Lakeside ponds. More reliable ice is available at Headwaters Park and McMillen Ice Arena during public skating hours.

For additional information, call the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Department at (260) 427-6000 or visit www.fortwayneparks.org.
