7 Retro Roller Skating Rinks to Visit This Summer
"The oldest remaining roller rink in the U.S., the Oaks Park Skating Rink is as much a piece of history as it is a beacon of communal joy. Opened in 1905, it survived the Great Depression, the 2008 recession, and, most recently, the COVID-19 pandemic. Some events that have been held in this Northwestern treasure include “Smooth Groove” Sunday and a monthly LGBTQ+ night. There's more to see even after you pull your skates off—the Oaks Park amusement park is also home to the Herschell–Spillman Noah’s Ark Carousel, a wooden ride built in 1912."
