Skating on the River

With Baton Rouge’s relatively warm and humid winters, the chances are nil for most of us ever getting to experience skating on an actual frozen river. Thank goodness, then, for the River Center’s annual Skating on the River, which lets us to strap on some blades and glide across the ice for an hour or two. A $12 ticket gets you refreshments, skates and an hour and a half of icy glee. Starts this Friday and continues through Jan. 2. Click here for more information.
