I felt that the new flooring, and various other surfaces in the ice arena are very efficent based on their projected use. Looking at the loby and all of the othere areas around there , the rubber flooring leeds ut to the pro-shop and to the locker room facilities, and allows for skaters to walk freely throughout the lobby and locker room. Once in the locker room, the bathroom flooring really caught my eve. It is mildew/mold resistant, therefore it will remain sanitary and safe for people who need to take showers at the rink.
Overall, even though the ice arena is an older facility, I feel that it meets the needs of the community, but only barely. Alot of events are held in the ice arena including BGSU varsity games, BGSU club hockey games, various high schools, and other community events, and it seems that the rink is streched to its limit. The addition of the second ice sheet helps, however it is so small. What would really help would be the addidtion of another full size ice sheet however, as Jamie stated, that takes alot of money, and the ice arena just doesnt have the funds to add it right now.
