Dammit - enuf of the pickle - how bout a hockey rink
There's enough pickle facilities around here.
Doesn't anyone like to skate for exercise?; figure skate, ice hockey league, pick-up hockey, open skating, even host ice dancing events.
It is cool to exercise in a chilled facility in the summer.
I expect that the business case could be made that the usage fees (ice time charges) will easily recoup the investment and operating costs.
Concessions (food, bar, snacks), pro shop, rental skates, advertising, would all add to the profit equation.
There are no facilities near by to compete with the business.
Even the VCS would benefit.
Thoughts?
