Mobile cooling coils convert a downtown pavilion on the city’s square into a slippery, icy oval in spite of Texas’ well-known mild and oftentimes sunny winters.
Now in its 18th season, Eisbahn will be open through the first weekend of January. Hours will vary throughout the season.
The rink is open from 4-8 p.m. Monday through Thursday during school weeks, 4-10 p.m. on Fridays and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturdays.
Sunday hours are 1-8 p.m. Eisbahn will be closed on Dec. 24-25 but will be open on New Year’s Eve, with scheduled hours of 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The rink may be reserved for private parties any time it is not open to the public.
A full day, come-and-go pass is $15, and $10 every Tuesday of the season. A 10-pack of day passes is $135.
Concessions, such as hot chocolate, pizza and candy, may be bought near the rink.
Seating is available for those who would prefer to watch people skate rather than brave the slippery ice themselves.
Gift buyers are encouraged to consider skate passes as gifts or stocking stuffers.
Prospective skaters should call Rebecca Williams at 830-992-8492 if temperatures drop below 30 degrees to make sure Eisbahn is still open and to schedule private parties.
