Skate in the Dark - Flatwoods Wilderness Park
Skate in the Dark every 2nd Friday of the month
This video was made at the Skate in the Dark, March 2009
The skate was formerly called "Full Moon Skates" and we have Diane's blessing to call it that, but since these skates will always be on the 2nd Friday of the month, and not necessarily on a full moon night, the skate got a new name. BUT besides name it is all the same – a fun skate in the dark, as fast as you want as slow as you want. The trail is 6.88 miles or you can extent it to the Bruce B. Downs entrance and then it will be 11 miles total.
Meet at the Ranger Station in Flatwoods - see calendar for dates and what time.
Remember $5 for after hours parking fee to Flatwoods.
Remember helmet (mandatory, no exceptions!! Rangers want this for liability reasons – and we want it for common sense :-) and a light of some sorts (light not mandatory, but a good idea).
No bicycles will be allowed on the trail, when skaters are there.
After the skate if people would like to, we can go get a cup of "water" at a nearby waterhole.
Meet at the Ranger station at:
14302 Morris Bridge Rd
Thonotosassa, FL 33592
