There are many ponds in Round Lake and especially some of the detention ponds in the newer areas that are frozen over. These ponds do not freeze completely and are quite dangerous. There have been some issues about kids skating on the ponds. To be candid this is just plain stupid and foolish. I have heard about kids being warned off the pond by the police and then returning when the police leave. There is no time that this is acceptable. Please if you want to skate the Park district has a large skating area at Hart's Hill, with a warming shed, and a wonderful sledding hill as well. Please be safe this winter!
