The 1,000-foot long Ribbon is a paved, loop trail that is refrigerated in winter to provide 25,000-square-feet of ice skating surface with rolling hills and soft curves. It includes a 5,000-square-foot ice skating area called the Pond that is suitable for beginning skaters and events.

Glass City Metropark
Various Dates/Times

Experience the perfect blend of curling and bocce ball on the ice at The Ribbon. Bocce on Ice is a fun, winter-ready activity for all skill levels, and a great option for those who don’t ice skate. Advanced Reservations required.

Instead of rolling bocce balls, players slide curling-style Dysks toward a puck target (called the Jack). Teams take turns aiming for the puck, scoring points based on how close they get. The first team to 12 points wins!
