Skateland Putty Hill to Close After 48 Years In Baltimore County
After nearly five decades of fun, family memories, and classic roller-skating nights, Skateland Putty Hill is officially closing its doors.
The beloved Nottingham skating rink announced Friday that it will shut down after 48 years of serving the Baltimore County community.

The announcement has sparked an outpouring of emotion from the community, with many longtime patrons sharing fond memories of birthday parties, school trips, and weekend hangouts spent under the glow of Skateland’s disco lights.
While the owners haven’t announced what’s next, their message to fans was filled with gratitude for the decades of support and love that have made Skateland Putty Hill a staple of Baltimore County recreation
