The Polar Bear Pond Skim will start at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, the release said. Skiers and snowboarders can wear a costume or summery garb while trying to skim across an ice-covered pond. Registration will begin at 2 p.m.
The South Park ice rink will operate as normal, weather permitting, with public skate sessions throughout the day.
