New Year's Eve Ice Skating (Fairfield County)

There was probably a time when you got your groove on for New Year's Eve at some hip nightclub.  But with kids on the scene, the closest you may come to getting your groove on before the ball drops, is at the local ice rink.  Several across Fairfield county will be open for public skating New Year's Eve -- even an outdoor one.  It's the perfect way to wear everyone out so you and your better half can rage in the living room 'til 2013 ... or at least reminisce about the rage you once had!
