R.I.'s own take to the ice tonight in Providence

PROVIDENCE -- Tonight could mark your last chance to see Rhode Island's own "Olympians" speeding across an ice rink -- in lounge chairs.

The Down City Olympic Winter Fest holds its final competitions from 6:30 to 8 p.m. today at the Bank of America City Center in Providence.

Tonight's events at the Kennedy Plaza rink include a figure skating exhibition, speed skating finals, toboggan race finals, biathlon race finals and the Cardi’s Furniture chair race finals. They'll be followed by a medals presentation.
