It’s not always easy to find fun outdoor this time of year in Ohio, but the temporary ice rink at Riverside Crossing Park in Dublin offers a fun way to work up a sweat while practicing your coordinati­on skills on a pair of ice skates. The rink is open from 5 to 9 p.m. Fridays, noon to 9 p.m. Saturdays and noon to 6 p.m. Sundays, through mid-march. Admission is $10 and includes skate rental.
