It's cold out anyway, so why not enjoy winter? Join Healthy Living @ Himmelfarb for ice skating at Georgetown's Washington Harbour on Friday, February 9th at 8 pm.
This ice skating rink is a short walk from GW and is right on the Georgetown waterfront. It’s the largest outdoor rink in the DC area and is even larger than the rink at New York City’s Rockefeller Center. As you skate, you can enjoy Georgetown’s beautiful winter lights; after you skate, you might enjoy one of the many nearby restaurants.
When: Friday, February 9th 8-10 p.m.
Where: Georgetown’s Washington Harbour Ice Skating Rink
Directions from GW: walk north on Virginia Ave and cross Rock Creek Parkway, veer left toward the Potomac and walk a short distance to the rink.
Cost: $12 includes entry fee and skate rental
RSVP: Register now to reserve your space! GW affiliates should register and may bring non-GW affiliates (please include all participants in registration).
