Bridport Skating Party 

January 4, 2025

11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Hello All,

Bridport Community Events is busy planning to host a skating party event at Barrows Park in Bridport. The event is envisioned to include skating, hot dogs, hot chocolate as well as opportunities to socialize and warm up around Solo wood stoves. In case there is no ice, we will be able to go into the school to socialize and let the kids run around and play games. 

To this end, we are still seeking ice skates for kids and adults as well. If you have skates you are willing to donate, please let us know or drop off with Trish at the Tri-Town Water office.

Also, if you would like to volunteer to help us in some way, please let us know that as well. 

Please send your replies to this email address:

Thank You!
