1 / 3The Ponds of Brookfield Ice Arena
đ Brookfield, WI
Home to Elmbrook Youth Hockey, high school co-op teams, and college programs, The Ponds runs an NHL-sized sheet with public skating sessions open to all ages and skill levels.
A lot of upgrades this year. New owner has really done a great job improving the experience there.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for hockey families with kids already enrolled in youth leagues or interested in learning. Public skating sessions work for all ages. Spectators can catch Windigo NAHL games for a live junior-hockey experience. School-age kids and teens get the most out of structured programs here.
