I am visiting Boston from Friday until Wednesday of next week for a work conference and my club's ice show is next week Saturday/Sunday. I am staying at the Marriott-Copley Place and was wondering if there is a rink close to there that has some early morning sessions. I'm debating if I want to bring my skates and try to get at least an hour practice in so that I'm not entirely useless on Thursday when I get back... I am driving there from Syracuse so transportation isn't a problem.

Thanks!!!

The Skating Club of Boston would be the closest. Here's their schedule: http://www.scboston.org/docs/SCOB%20...20Schedule.pdf

They're about 10 minutes away with no traffic.

If you'll be in Boston from Friday-Wednesday, Colonial FSC has two adults only sessions on Saturday afternoon. http://www.colonialfsc.com/forms/SPR...20Schedule.pdf They're awesome sessions to skate on because they're never crowded. If you're interested in one of those, I'll make sure to come. Colonial is probably a half hour or so from Boston.

I'm thinking that the Saturday ice sounds amazing, I just need to check with the person I'm staying with because we were going to go do some sight seeing/exploring either Saturday/Sunday, so I just want to see what the plan is I will let you know later today!!
