Riverside Roller Rink (No. 1) was opened on May 30, 1940. It was built with tin walls, a canvas roof and a portable floor. It was actually a tent! On July 24, 1940, after being open for only six weeks, a severe storm with 60 mile per hour winds blew the rink down. The area was mostly farmland at the time.
Riverside Roller Rink (No. 2) was built immediately following the destruction of the first rink. It was opened in September, 1940, and operated until December, 1945. It was built with wood walls and a truss type roof. This rink was about half the length of the current rink.
Riverside Arena No. 2 remained open during the construction of the third rink which was built on the adjacent property.
In 1978, the lobby was moved to the back of the building to take advantage of the ample rear parking. In 1990, additional property was acquired, and a complete exterior and interior renovation was completed in celebration of our 50th anniversary. A new sign, parking, illumination, sidewalks and landscaping were just part of the exterior refit.
