Ice!
Ice!
The cooling system was turned on Monday after all the finishing touches had been applied to the mechanical end. Tuesday night the air was much cooler in the arena as volunteers were busy plugging leaks and appling water as we started to build up the ice sheet. Other volunteers were breaking out concrete and re-routing plumbing in the concession stand area and then re-pouring concrete as this area moves closer to ready and yet another group was cleaning the construction residue off the boards.
