Youngsters of all ages can have fun this holiday season as they take a turn around the ice with the jolly old man in the big red suit at “Skate with Santa,” Sunday, December 17, at the Ice Casino at Playland Park in Rye.

From 1:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., Santa will take to the ice on both the main and children’s rinks. Bring a camera and he’ll be happy to pose for holiday photos as well. “Skate with Santa” has become a popular Playland Ice Casino tradition.

Regular admission prices are $8 for adults, $7 for adults with a Westchester County Park Pass; $5 for senior citizens with a county Senior Citizen ID; $6 for children age 12 and under and $5 for children accompanied by a Westchester County Park pass holder.
