Ice skating at Belmar
Maybe it’s all that snow piled up outside, or the fact that we’re planning our Thanksgiving menus (can it really be next week!?), but we’re suddenly finding ourselves diving headfirst into the holiday spirit.
And, so, we’re excited to check out the winter action at Belmar. The holiday season kicks off there Nov. 19 at 6 p.m. with free ice skating at the center’s rink, hot cocoa, cookies and performances by The Denver Skating Club. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver will be on hand to help ring in the holiday season and will be accepting donations throughout the evening. Since 1961, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver has been helping kids stay out of trouble, stay in school and succeed in life.
New this season is Belmar’s “Make Someone Happy, Even if it’s You” holiday promotion. From Nov. 27 through Dec. 24, look for a daily gift card giveaway valued at $200, a weekly giveaway of $1,000 and one $5,000 grand prize. Guests can enter to win at the Belmar Information Center or at Whole Foods Market, 444 S. Wadsworth Blvd. Over the course of the promotion, Belmar will donate 20 percent of the winnings to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver.
