Are These Maryland and Virginia Roller Rinks Still Open?

[Kathie Fry]

The "Where to Skate in Washington DC" thread encouraged me to review the QuadSkating.com Rink Directories for Maryland and Virginia.

• Maryland Roller Skating Rinks
  
• Virginia Roller Skating Rinks

Are all of these roller rinks still open? Did I miss any?

Regency Roller Sports is no longer open.. closed about 4 years ago...

I'm almost certain that Slapshotz is closed, but don't hold me to that... it wasn't really a roller rink though as much as is was a roller hockey rink... We also used to play indoor soccer there..

Strawbridge is closed, or the number was changed on me...

I didn't see Kempsville on the list - it was still open a couple years ago, but that's the last I knew...


Hope that helps a little!

This one is not on the list, but I spent the happiest years of my life there:



Now, it's beautiful, 190 x 90 foot maple floor goes unused, If I could only hit the lottery....

Owings, Maryland 20736

It's dead, Jim.

8 years of refusing to put a door on the bathroom stall finally took it's toll.

There's some sort of health club in the building now.

Absolutely still open. I skate there when I can. Anthony Lee also skates there -- he is a top competitor in quad figures, and he teaches an inline speedskating class there.

It's about 15 - 20 minutes from BWI airport.

This is the one to go to if you want fast & furious! "Trains", and many fabulous skaters doing all kinds of tricks, etc. Also, very funky & "soul" music -- it's great! They advertise it as, "Home of the best in Urban, Hip-Hop, R&B, Old School Roller Skating."

Wheels in Odenton is calmer; it may be a bit more family oriented; they give a one-hour lesson for beginners & intermediates before the general skate every Tuesday (6:00 pm for the lesson: Fee is $5.00 - includes one hour class, quad skate rental (they will give you inline rentals if you ask), and Tuesday evening public skate session 7 - 9:30 pm); and they play pretty tame bubble-gum type music. They advertise it as, "At Wheels, we offer a wholesome, clean, well supervised skating center, and we continue to maintain a recognized reputation for providing wholesome, safe, family entertainment."

Kempsville and Greenbriar are still open these are the ones I frequent, I hear Haygood is open on weekends but it's mostly a bingo parlor.
