The ice must be at least four to five inches thick to allow for skating.</p><p>On-site signs will alert patrons of the ice conditions. You can also call 815-987-8858 or visit www.rockfordparkdistrict.org to find out if it's safe to skate.</p><p>Hockey is also available at the lagoon, but only on the north end.
