Looking for something to do Christmas? Why not try ice skating?

The Folsom Historic District Ice Rink will be open on Christmas day for three sessions — at 2 p.m., 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.

The ice rink experienced a mechanical issue that caused it to be closed Friday and Saturday.

“Unfortunately, due to the complexity of the repairs, it is taking longer than we anticipated,” according to a Facebook post by the skating rink.

However, the rink is expected to be open in time for the holiday.
