Ice skating during family weekend was a perfect day way to spend time with our daughter- very fun, social activity. Plus is was great to walk around the rink and read about the history of the BGSU hockey teams and how so many former BG players have made it into the NHL. Will be back again for sure!

Just like I remember from 30 years ago.

My sibling and I really enjoyed this game.
