The park district is excited to announce that if the weather is
willing and we find a way to fill it with water, we will have an ice skating rink
in town this winter. We are especially pleased to announce that two families
made donations that help defray the costs.
We take our hats off and
kindly thank Lyle & Sandy
Bushman who donated one truck load of lime and
Shawn & Kim Von Holten who
donated the grading and shaping of the rink.
We were fortunate enough to find 3 men
who have a great sense of civic pride. They also just want to see our kids have
a great time. The magic of ice would not have been possible without their
generosity and persistence. Those 3 men are Fire Chief Kevin Folk, Assistant
Fire Chief Dave Folk and firefighter Nathan Hartman. The weather cooperated for
one week in December. The rink was filled, froze and enjoyed by all. One week
later the temperatures rose to a balmy 50 degrees and destroyed the dreams of
figure eights. Just when we thought all was lost…Kevin, Dave & Nate…
as they do so often, came to the rescue again.
We can’t thank them enough, but
we will try……Thank You!
The rink is open for a second time as
