New rink opened today, and I was first on the ice.

Our new rink opened today. Money had been donated way back in 2007, and finally the rink is a reality.
The other rink in town went to 100% hockey this year, so we are really please about this new one.
Opened at noon, and I was there, first to step on the ice. Felt great! they are having a big opening Skatefest on Saturday.
Best Christmas present to our skaters in....well, ever.

That's great news!  It sounds like it has been in the works for a long time.  I'm glad it came to fruition.  The hockey presence is huge where I live too so I can see how nice that must be to have a second rink.

Congrats!  I hope someone took your picture as the first skater on the new ice for posterity.  Did you cut a ribbon at the dasher board entrance?

Where is the rink located?
Courage doesn't always roar.  Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day that says, "I will try again tomorrow."
