GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The city of Grand Rapids is one step closer to being ready for the holiday season after the Rosa Parks Circle ice rink reopened Thursday.

The rink has been closed the last few years due to renovations and the pandemic.

Now, the rink is open from 10 a.m.- 9:30 p.m. It will close periodically for breaks as crews resurface the ice.
