Sharks Ice Community,

In accordance with the shelter in place mandate from our local county governments, our Sharks Ice Network of Rinks (Solar4America Ice in San Jose and Fremont and the Oakland Ice Center) will be closed through May 3rd. We appreciate your continued support and we look forward to seeing you back at the rink as soon as possible! Stay Safe.

Before re-opening, we will reassess the then-current local, state and federal guidelines and recommendations. 

Until we determine the exact date for re-opening, we are unable to provide a cohesive plan for rescheduling and/or other compensatory measures for missed events.  Thank you for your understanding in this regard.

The health and safety of our patrons and employees are paramount, and we are happy to do our part to try to limit the spread of COVID-19 in our communities.

We thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you back at the rinks as soon as possible.
