NEW YORK (AP) — Winter can’t be far away.

The skating rink at Rockefeller Center is opening for the season on Monday.

Olympic ice dancing gold medalists Meryl Davis and Charlie White are scheduled to perform.

Retired New York Rangers player Rod Gilbert will then lead a ceremonial first public skate around the rink.

The Rink at Rockefeller Center first opened on Christmas Day in 1936.
