MAMARONECK, NY (September 21, 2025) — The Hommocks Park Ice Rink, a cornerstone of community recreation since its December 1973 opening, marked a major milestone with a grand reopening on Sept. 13 after extensive refurbishments.
Located at 140 Hommocks Road in Larchmont, the facility is owned and operated by the Town of Mamaroneck through its Recreation Department. Managed by a rink general manager and director, the NHL-sized ice surface has long offered public skating sessions, youth and adult hockey leagues, figure skating programs and learn-to-skate classes.
Established as part of the broader Hommocks Park recreational complex, the rink was built to provide dedicated space for ice skating, hockey and community events serving Mamaroneck residents and surrounding areas. It hosts events for local schools including Hommocks Middle School and community tournaments, fostering youth development through partnerships with organizations like USA Hockey.
Over the decades, the rink has undergone periodic maintenance to address wear from heavy use. In the early 2000s, upgrades included improved lighting and resurfacing equipment. More recently, following assessments in the 2020s, the town invested in refurbishments to modernize the facility, including structural repairs and energy-efficient upgrades.
The latest project drew support from the New York Rangers and Benjamin Moore, who donated resources for painting and other enhancements. The reopening event drew local leaders, residents, families and friends, serving as a gathering place to highlight community spirit.
The ceremony featured a ribbon-cutting with New York Rangers alumnus Brian Mullen.
“I’d like to thank the New York Rangers and Benjamin Moore for donating the resources for refurbishing the fabulous Hommocks Park Ice Rink,” the Town of Mamaroneck stated in a social media post. “This rink means so much to the community!”
LMC Media Center produced a video of the event titled “Community Stories: Hommocks Ice Rink Upgrade 9/13/25.”
The rink remains integral to Mamaroneck’s recreational landscape, promoting physical activity and social gatherings. It operates seasonally from fall through spring, with summer months dedicated to floor events like roller skating. As of 2025, it continues as a vital asset for families, athletes and local leaders in the Town of Mamaroneck.
