Great to see that Evesham council have granted funds to bring an Ice Skating Rink to Evesham for a trial run in December. Evesham Market Square will be the venue for a temporary Ice Rink on 4th , 5th and 6th December 09.
Cost is likely to be £3 per half hour including skate hire.
The 30 sqm rink will open from 3pm to 9pm on Friday, December 4, from 10am to 9pm on Saturday, December 5 and from 10am to 5pm on Sunday, December 6.
Evesham Town councillors voted to splash out £3,500 on an artificial ice rink for Market Square in March this year after they all agreed that there were few public events during the winter in Evesham..
Coun Martin Hammond, who put d the idea forward said that it was hoped the ice rink would provide entertainment for residents during a quiet time of the year and bring tourism to the town..
“This is something completely new for Evesham. We’re going to put our toe in the water with it and if it’s a success will continue with it.”
