Light Up Your Hanukkah on Ice

Children and adults from Alexandria and Arlington celebrating Hanukkah are set to converge on the ice rink at Pentagon City Row in Arlington next weekend.

From 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m Dec. 9, "Hanukkah on Ice" will begin with Jewish music and classic holiday songs. Arlington County Fire Chief James Schwartz will light a huge menorah at 7 p.m.

"It is a holiday that enriches our lives with the light of tradition" said Rabbi Mordechai Newman, director of Chabad Lubavitch of Alexandria-Arlington and coordinator of Hanukkah on Ice. "We want to make the spirit of the Hanukkah holiday alive for the kids."

The Pentagon row ice rink is located at 1201 S. Joyce St. in Arlington.

Tickets are $12 at the door, and $10 in advance. Ticket prices include skate rental. Food is sold separately.
