The Pond

"Great atmosphere, awesome staff. One of my favorite places in Rosemount."

"To say I am impressed is an understatement. My son's development has come so far in just a few weeks with the summer program, to the point were several friends and family members have noticed and said something, including his coaches on his summer team. The kids are well engaged and kept hungry to learn and play even when they don't realize they are being taught. We will definitely be back next year."

"Both my boys have been skating here for years. They are professional, kind and respectful. I looked up the number for an upcoming clinic and was shocked to see a horrible, irratic review. The staff has gone out of their way to assist my family with information and requests. shame on the trucking company that wrote that, odds are there is more to that story, because after years of dealing with them that has never been my experience! Thank you to The Pond for making my kids better players and being patient with my husband and I!"

"Absolutely TERRIBLE. The most unorganized unprofessional staff that l have ever worked with. I grew up in the ice arena, played H.S hockey and went onto the U of M to win 2 National Titles. I've been in and around all kinds of skating schools, hockey camps, etc.. My son wanted to learn how to play (4 yrs old) with his buddy, whom also was a beginner. I requested that they be on the same team in the mini mite program because my son is behind in speech and can lack the confidence and will basically shut down, as well as I would be bringing his buddy to the arena. After the evaluation it was clear these two were truly BEGINNERS. I assumed they would be on the same team due to the fact that I requested and explained why they should be together. When I looked at time schedule and found out they were not, I called and spoke with an extremely rude staff member who when I asked the simple question simply said "we'll refund your money" Feeling terrible because my son actually wanted to go back, I asked for the reason for not letting them play together, getting the impression that because they were beginners and not good enough at 4 yrs old..the stuff member said it was because of my tone... This stuff member even refunded his buddies $$ without speaking to his parents.. Long story short I've been told not to try this program from multiple people and even 1 family member has his sons still going only because he feel like its cheap ice time and stated his kids learn nothing from the staff and it's really a joke.. but its ice time.. DO NOT recommend."
