AlphaSierra 1 Report post Posted December 21, 2011 Just wondering if the DC area gets cold enough for any pond hockey during the winter. Weather seems a bit mild but I remember in last years 24/7 they mentioned a place "off the Potomac". I might be moving there in the next year or so and want the little one to experience it.

fuzzerson 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2011 I live in Northern Virginia. I have been here for about 4 years. Some years you may get a week or so where it is cold enough and I know people who have gone out on local ponds, but the window is short and variable. This area sits on the boundry of two climate zones, weather varies greatly.There are a lot of indoor rinks around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlphaSierra 1 Report post Posted December 21, 2011 Thanks for the scoop. That is kind of what I figured, good to know for sure. I was out there last year and did a tour of some of the local rinks on a day off. You guys seem to have a great local scene going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goonsquad 209 Report post Posted December 21, 2011 if the weather cooperates there are a few ponds in the Frederick area that i skate on. But yes there is pond hockey but not often enough to start up a leagueMy League also did a pond hockey thing to change things up a little. for our rink.

MarsB 33 Report post Posted December 22, 2011 Definitely played some shinny here when I lived in the area! I think they may have 'no skating' signs now, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
