[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two nice ice rinks on the west side of lower Montgomery county.  There’s an ice rink on Southlawn that has a number of rinks so that different events can occur at the same time, as well as Cabin John Has an ice rink[/quote]

This is an uninformed comment.  It is obvious that there are rinks in Rockville and at Cabin John.  The issue is that these rinks are packed at all times, and teams and individuals are all vying for ice time at these precious few rinks.  (And these rinks are dark and old anyway.)[/quote]

What's wrong with Rockville?  The problem with rinks is what you do with them from March to September.  They have trouble bringing in revenue for 1/2 the year.  Places like Prince William, STJ, Piedmont, Tucker Road, and even Ft Dupont are not filled all the time.  I've even seen the rinks dark at Rockville in the afternoon if the main tenants (Bullis, Landon, SJC) aren't using them.  [/quote]

They are dark because the users are in school. My figure skater can’t get ice time there. It’s feels like you’ve completely missed the point. [/quote]
