**CitiParks Hosts 37th Annual Mascot Skate Event at Schenley Park**

PITTSBURGH, PA – The 37th Annual Mascot Skate, hosted by CitiParks, is set to take place on Saturday, January 25, 2025, at the Schenley Park Skating Rink. This much-loved annual event invites attendees to lace up their skates and take to the ice alongside some of their favorite Pittsburgh-area mascots.

The skating session will run from 1:30 PM to 3:00 PM and promises plenty of fun for participants of all ages. Tickets for the event are available exclusively online and can be purchased at [this link](https://bit.ly/49F0pQM).

This year's event is made even more special thanks to Cappezzuto's Pizza in Greenfield, which has generously donated pizza to keep the mascots fueled and festive.

CitiParks would like to extend appreciation to Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey, Kathryn Vargas (Director of CitiParks), and Therese Kall-Smith (Chairperson for the Committee on Urban Recreation) for their support.

The City of Pittsburgh emphasizes its commitment to inclusivity and non-discrimination, welcoming all attendees to enjoy the Mascot Skate regardless of race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, age, sex, or any other protected status under the law.

Mark your calendars and get your skates ready for an afternoon of fun and community spirit! For more details, visit the event link provided by CitiParks.
