Winter at Detroit's Monroe Street Midway -- Bumper cars, giant slide, more opening next month

(Bedrock)

Detroit's Monroe Street Midway is transforming for the winter soon.

Next month, winter bumper cars on an ice rink, an arctic slide you ride on with a tube, puck-putt (putt-putt with a hockey stick), an arcade, and more open.

Food will also be available, including burgers, pierogi, chili, chicken sandwiches, and mac-and-cheese bites, plus gluten-free and vegan options.

 Santa will be there for free photos on Thursdays and Fridays from 4-8 p.m. and on Saturdays and Sundays from noon to 4 p.m. from Nov. 18 to Dec. 22.

The activities are part of Decked Out Detroit. In the summer, the Midway includes basketball courts, a roller rink, and other warm-weather fun.
