The cold weather so far this winter has helped the village of Dexter and city of Saline open their outdoor ice rinks.
Dexter opened its rink in downtown Monument Park on Wednesday — earlier than usual, the Dexter Leader reports.

The rink is open Sunday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Saline's ice rink also opened this week in the northeast corner of Henne Field, just off Bennett Street. Rink hours are Sunday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
People skate at their own risk and safety gear is recommended for both rinks.
