ImOne Ice Arena damage
The Aug. 10, 2020, derecho that hit Eastern Iowa severely damaged ImOn Ice Arena and shut down all arena operations for the fall.
The good news is:
- Our stones and equipment were not damaged and are ready to use (with some dusting off).
- The NHL (Roughrider’s) rink will be repaired this spring.
- The “Oly” (our curling) rink will be repaired in time for us to curl this fall, and it will have upgrades.
