SUMMERFEST ROLLERFEST AT PENN’S LANDING

For over 20 years DRWC has been operating the Blue Cross Riverrink at Penn’s Landing. From November to March each year the Market St East parking lot is converted into a full-sized ice skating rink. They have a zamboni and everything!

For the first time ever the ice skating rink has been transformed into a roller skating rink! The hospitality lodges that provide a cozy respite from the cold during Winterfest will provide shade from the heat during Summerfest. Summerfest was voted “Top 3 Places to Visit In 2015” by the New York Times, has topped many other “Top” and “Best of” lists and won several awards.

At the last minute DRWC had a scheduling conflict with the photographer and needed a cast of rollerskaters to appear in the advertisement for the new rink right away. As in less than 24 hours right away.  They called us and we put together a diverse cast of skaters that were featured in the ad, which ran as cover stories in the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Daily News newspapers.
