Ice Skating Rink Coming to Downtown Lansing
With all of the Covid-19 news and politics, it’s nice to report on something that will create some positive excitement. Downtown Lansing is getting an ice skating rink in a partnership with the city of Lansing. The Plans are for a 3300 square foot synthetic skating rink expected to be open early February.
When it’s completed you will be able to head down to City Hall Plaza at Capitol Avenue and Michigan, across from the Capitol. This new installation will feature colorful lighting, with benches and heaters on the plaza by the rink. With people having to stay home much of the time these days, people in our community are seeking out safe things to do outside this year, and this will encourage more traffic for our downtown businesses.

Exciting New Things Coming to Lansing
Wow, this is really exciting for Lansing! How about a new ice rink, a new dog park downtown and a public cricket field? I say bring it on. Being a new resident in Lansing (here for only 4 months), I am always looking for new things to do in the area.
Here are some cool things coming to the Lansing area according to fox47.com. 2020 is history and we are all looking forward to good times ahead. This is an exciting plan we can really look forward to:
Lansing’s Parks and Recreation Department s five-year plan to expand and improve parks across the city includes a public cricket field at Frances Park, a dog park near downtown and buying 66 acres east of Fine Park from the Lansing School District.
Lansing launches new website
Frequent visitors to the city of Lansing’s website may have noticed recent changes.
The city launched a new website in late December, according to Ken Miller, public information officer.
The website can be found at the same address, www.lansingks.org
“The new website looks great,” Miller said.
He said the new website was designed by the company Municode. He said the city is paying less for the new website than it did for the former one, which was maintained by a different company.
Miller said the new website took about five to six months to create.
