Project Vision
The vision is to create a permanent "community" oriented ice
sports facility to serve the diverse recreational needs of the
Southtowns. An outdoor "Pavilion-Style" facility is planned,
one that can be used for ice sports during the colder months, as well
as off-ice training programs and community events for fundraising
during the warmer months.
Located in the center of East Aurora's business disctrict on Riley
Street, the rink is easily accessible to all Southtown residents. When completed, it
will be a gathering place and a vibrant hub of activity for our Village.
A temporary outdoor single rink, the "TimeWarner Cable Winter Classic"
rink, was installed in the fall of 2008, and hosted many enjoyable
public skating and hockey events over the past two winters. The rink is
now closed for the 2010 summer season, but will reopen in the fall.
You can
help make our dream for a permanent Pavilion rink become a reality.
