Keep the Magic Alive — Donate Today

Winter Lodge is more than an ice rink — it’s a legacy of community, joy, and tradition in Palo Alto. As a nonprofit under Community Skating, Inc. (EIN 77-0089303), we rely on your generous support to sustain our operations, maintain the facility, and ensure access to skating lessons, public sessions, and community programs.

Your contribution helps us:

  • Maintain and repair our refrigeration, ice, and infrastructure systems
  • Keep public skating accessible and programs robust
  • Preserve the only permanent outdoor ice rink west of the Sierra Nevada
