ACTIVITIES AT RINK LINK

LESS WATCHING.
MORE DOING.

For the movers. The makers. The “can we try that?” kids. There's room here to be a little more you.

01 / THE RINK IS CALLING

ONE MORE LAP?
YES, PLEASE.

Wobbly first rolls. Little victories. That feeling when it finally clicks. Skating gives kids a chance to move, try, and cheer each other on.

A taste of Sk8way life. Activities and schedules vary.

A FEW LAST THINGS

GOT QUESTIONS?
WE'VE GOT YOU.

Call 828-246-9124 ↗
What if our school isn't listed for pickup?

Let us know! New pickup locations may be considered when enough families are interested. Call to discuss your school and confirm arrangements before your child's first day.

What about days when school is out?

Check the separate School's Out program for available dates, hours, rates, and registration. Regular after-school registration does not reserve a School's Out date.

What needs to be done before the first day?

Each child needs a completed 2026–2027 registration, required medical information and paperwork, and advance payment before bus pickup or drop-off. Review the policies on the registration form.

Can we talk to someone before signing up?

Absolutely. Call 828-246-9124 or email the Sk8way team. Tell us your child's grade and school, and we'll help with your next step.
