Alameda County 4-H Skate Night 10/27/25

Mon Oct 27th, 6:00-9:00pm - Golden Skate 2701 Hooper Dr. San Ramon

Cost: $9 admission each + $7 skate rental (or bring your own skates)

All 13 Alameda County 4-H Clubs come together at this annual event. This year they extended the event by 1 hour so there is more time for skating, making new friends and having fun! County is covering over half of the $19 admission fee, so everyone gets $10 off admission. In previous years the entire admission fee was covered with money raised at Cake Booth. Hopefully next year we can raise more money at Cake Booth to cover the full admission again.

Costume Contest starts at 7pm with lots of fun categories:

Scariest
Cutest
Best Group
Most Creative
Funniest
Best Homemade / Recycled
Best Book or Movie Character
