Pros: Helpful off-ice staff; plastic skates with click-locks instead of laces (great for beginners!). Cons: Friday nights are dangerous. When we first arrived, there was lots of horseplay., racing, slamming into walls, etc. There were three staff members on the ice, and they didn't do anything to stop it. They seemed more interested in hanging out with each other. It got better as the evening went on, but I think we'll stick to Saturday afternoons from now on.
