Skate under LED lights at the #RaleighLED Ice Skating Tweetup
It’s been more than three years since city officials in Raleigh, NC, first installed energy-efficient LED lighting. Since then, the city has embraced the energy-saving technology by installing LED lights at more than two dozen locations around the city!
At Cree, we’re excited to honor the city of Raleigh as the world’s first LED City® with the #RaleighLED Ice Skating Tweetup!
Triangle-area Twitter users and other LED lighting fans are invited to ice skate under LED lights at downtown Raleigh’s outdoor ice rink from 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 31.
You can secure your free ice skate rental by registering for #RaleighLED Ice Skating Tweetup here.
The Raleigh Winterfest Ice Rink is one of more than two dozen locations in Raleigh that features LED lighting. It’s an awesome chance to sip on some hot chocolate, mingle with Tweeps, see LED lights and get your outdoor skate on.
LED lighting will play a big role in Raleigh during the week of Feb. 1, when the Department of Energy hosts its Solid-State Lighting Research and Design Workshop at the Raleigh Convention Center. I bet you didn’t even know that the fancy industry term for LED lighting is “Solid-State Lighting,” did you? Hundreds of LED aficionados and experts from all over the country will be coming to Raleigh for the workshop and to see the light(s)!
We hope you can make it to the #RaleighLED Ice Skating Tweetup to see some LED lighting in action and learn more about this technology in advance of the Department of Energy’s conference in Raleigh! Don’t forget to register!!

I have seen people wearing LED lights in the skates (see my videos at YouTube) but it should be amazing to have a colour LED set UNDER the ice! someone knows about an ice rink like this? Cheers.David.
