About this Event
Lace up your skates and let it all roll out, feelings included. Join Grieve Leave for Wails and Wheels, a special Sad Hour on skates at Wheels Durham! Whether you’re gliding, wobbling, or just hanging by the snack bar, this is a space to move, groove, and grieve, but no toxic positivity allowed.
Join us for 2 hours of skating time at Wheels Durham on 1/17/2026 from 5pm to 7:30pm. Your registration fee covers skating time and skate rentals. Food and beverages available for individual purchase.
$15 per person to register!
PS: Don't know how to skate? Neither does our founder, Rebecca. She's deeply worried about this but still looks forward to attending.
What are Sad Hours?
Sad Hours (because not every hour is happy) are our way of flipping the script on how we deal with loss. They’re real-life gatherings where you can ditch the “I’m fine” act and actually talk about what’s going on — the heavy stuff, the messy stuff, the human stuff — with people who get it.
No two Sad Hours are the same. We’ve shared stories over fries, made candles together, unrolled yoga mats — and we’re always game to try something new. The vibe is simple: real people talking about real things…or just listening. There’s no pressure to share if you don’t want to. Sad Hours are all about real connection around a table, or over a drink or two (or zero).
