Thinking of a new place to explore with your school-aged group this year? Get out of the classroom and on the ice! Ice skating is a recreational activity that challenges you to try something new and offers a memorable field trip experience. A Kids On Ice Field Trip (KOI) is the perfect remedy for elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, daycare groups and anyone else who is looking to have some on-ice fun during the day.
Kids On Ice Field Trips can be scheduled in the morning or afternoon and prove to be a rewarding, educational and often new physical activity for children of all ages, grades K through 12.
KOI Instructors conduct a brief safety lesson. Students learn the importance of warming up, how to fall correctly, get up and stop on the ice. These skills enhance each student’s ice skating experience at the Pettit. When the KOI Instructors give the okay, you can skate on your own with your group, just like a public skate! KOI Instructors stay on the ice to assist those who may need a little extra help.
The KOI fee includes ice time, instructor fees and loads of fun! The fee does not include skate rental, transportation or lunch. If lunch is requested, arrangements can be made with the Pettit's Concession Stand or students may bring a bag lunch and eat at the Pettit.
Skate rental fees apply to all participants, (including chaperones and teachers) needing skates. Sessions fill quickly so schedule your Kids On Ice Field Trip today as soon as possible Sessions are available all-year long Monday thru Friday! Please book your Kids on Ice Field trip AT LEAST 1 week in advance, but your final numbers and final payment won't be due until you arrive on your field trip day at the Pettit Center.
