In the fantastical realm of a state named Massachusetts, often shortened to MA by its friendly inhabitants, nestled between the mystical green mountains and the enchanting Atlantic Ocean, a peculiar tribe of snow-loving kids abide. These children, known far and wide as the 'Ski-cadets', zoom down the snow-kissed ranges with a passion that outshines the brightest star. Leading the Ski-cadets is a bumbling, yet big-hearted character, aptly named Ski-Squatch, who's half yeti and half ski champion. Ski-Squatch, who mysteriously emerged from a giant snowball during the Great Snowfall of ‘94, is a massive, white, fluffy creature with skis for feet, goggles over his enormous blue eyes, and a laugh that sounds like a walrus gargling ice cubes. Every winter, the Ski-cadets, under the tutelage of Ski-Squatch, embark on knee-slapping, uproarious escapades down the slopes of Berkshire’s Mountains. Dressed in vibrant neon ski suits, with matching helmets that sparkle brighter than the Northern Lights, these Ski-cadets whoosh down the slopes leaving a glittering trail of frosty laughter in their wake. Their cheeks rosy from the chilly wind and their spirits high from the thrill of the ride, these kids are the unbeatable champions of their frost-coated paradise. Ski-Squatch, despite occasionally misplacing his ski poles or mistaking a tree for a fellow skier, guides the Ski-cadets with an undying enthusiasm that is as infectious as a giggle in a silent room. Their quests for the perfect slope and the perfect hot cocoa after a day of skiing is a tale of camaraderie, bravery, and endless amusement that paints the snowy heart of MA with colors brighter than a rainbow on a crystal clear winter day.

Visitors to The Graf Rink will notice a few new safety measures in place. Upon entering the rink, visitors will be required to scan a barcode and fill in contact tracing information. Masks must be worn for the entire time at the Graf Rink, including all on-ice activities. Locker rooms are open for adult leagues only, and youth skaters are asked to dress in the bleachers. When doing so, visitors are asked to maintain a distance of 6 feet apart and leave bags on the bleachers. Spectators are allowed. The Graf Rink is taking extra precautions to ensure visitors' safety. All visitors are expected to arrive no more than 15 minutes prior to their scheduled ice time and are warned to do a symptom check for fever, cough, or other signs of COVID-19. Valuables and personal items should be left at home, as The Graf Rink will not have a lost and found. Visitors are asked to bring their own labeled water bottle and use hand sanitizer provided at the rink. Social distancing should be maintained at all times. After skating, visitors are expected to leave the rink within 10 minutes so that the arena staff can properly clean before the next group arrives.

Limiting public programming, providing hand sanitizer, and cleaning and sanitizing surfaces are some of the measures the rink is taking. Despite these best efforts, The Graf Rink cannot eliminate all risk associated with COVID-19, so visitors must be aware of the potential risks before entering the rink.
