The owners and
event managers at the great, new
Seaside
Ice rink in
Redondo Beach welcome the public to come
join the fun during the holiday season
(November to January).
In the
video above, the owners of Seaside Ice in
Redondo Beach invite you to share in the fun
during the holiday season at King Harborr's
Seaside Lagoon. That's where a holiday,
outdoor ice rink was installed on a beach
overlooking the harbor, Pacific Ocean and
mountain range that lines this beautiful
Southern California bay. South Bay is a
tourist destination close to Los Angeles,
Orange County and San Diego.
 Seaside Ice has palm trees, beaches and ice
in Redondo Beach, California. On Tuesday
evenings you'll find Ruby Tuesdays, in which
Ruby's diner next door to the rink offers
prizes for skaters dressed in 50's style
attire. On Wednesdays there are free movies
for the kids. And special guest appearances
of Santa round out this awesome beach event.
The
ice rink was unveiled in November 2008 and
is open seasonally for the winter holidays
each year. Redondo Beach has never hosted a
beach ice rink in recent history and the
public is welcoming this skating opportunity
with open arms. In addition to great
sponsors, the public is attending the rink
and enjoying the Southern California
sunshine and the beautiful harbor setting
(boats pass by as you skate) in Seaside
Lagoon, a sand beach venue for tourists and
locals. At Seaside Ice, vendors sell
candy, snacks and soft drinks, and there's
Brazilian Barbeque each evening. In
addition, Ruby's has a walk up window where
you can order meals right next to the rink.
There are outdoor picnic tables with palapa-style
umbrella shade to make eating a real treat.
The
Seaside Ice planners thought of everything
you can imagine. In addition to world class
skaters giving demonstrations regularly, and
classes being offered so you can learn to
skate, there's a grandstand with comfortable
seat in patriot red & blue.
 It's
Americana, brought to Southern California
from residents of Redondo Beach who
envisioned something more than the empty
space that sits each winter mostly unused at
Seaside Lagoon. Coming from Chicago and
Boston originally, Tom & Maura Kearney grew
up with fun winter activities at their
access. As they exercised in Redondo Beach's
Gold's Gym overlooking the empty space at
the lagoon, they began to hatch a plan to
create an attraction that would bring life
to the summer paradise, now desolate during
the winter months when the Southern
California weather is perfect.
It
took several years of planning to launch the
Seaside Ice venture. City permits,
partnerships and logistics all came into
play in making this ice rink gel. When you
visit and see the setting, the happy people
skating, and families having fun, you
understand what the founders were thinking.
In addition to operating an event business
with a party bus, a film production company,
and maintaining a full time career in
advertising, the dynamic duo had a dream and
are testimony to how two people can help a
community.
Additional ventures include:
Disc Metro is a party bus you can rent
in Redondo Beach. Leopard skin seats, disco
ball, pictures of John Travolta, and more.
