Go ice skating (sort of) in University Circle's picturesque Wade Oval for free all winter long. We say "sort of" because the rink itself is made out of an environmentally-friendly polymer instead of ice, and will be maintained without using water or electricity. So, maybe it's more like green skating? Rental blades are available for $3 if you don't have your own, and a concession stand serves up piping hot chocolate during normal operating hours.
