One that is preferably open during the week. Thanks! I go to the Albany Hockey Facility thats next to the Albany airport. Its at the light at the exit from the airport. They have morning, evening and weekend open skating. Lots of kids on the weekends. I have also gone to HVCC rink open skating there is always a lot of kids all over there. The ice is kept usually really good at the albany rink. There is usually outdoor skating outside at the Plaza in downtown albany. It use to be free except for skate rentals. ---

taking a girl to an icerink is not going to get you laid. You have to take them to an outdoor location with xmas lights and hot chocolate readily availible, while its snowing and wear a red scarf. Telling you Instant panty dropper. To seal the deal slip some 101 proof peppermint schnapps in her hot cocoa ---

Exit 12 (going south) on 87. 4 story mall with all she could ever shop for… moives food, skating etc. > **[Palisades Center - Shopping, Dining and Entertainment in West Nyack, NY](https://www.palisadescenter.com/)** > > Located just 25 miles north of NYC, Palisades Center is a four-level shopping center offering over 200 stores, 15 sit-down restaurants, and more.

I’m not sure when they turn it into an ice skating rink, but usually the reflecting pool closest to the capitol building in Empire State Plaza gets turned into an ice rink. I think its free to use any time too. ---
