• In August 1947, Arnie Cliff along with Don Lambrecht opened the Ardon Roller Rink, also on North Sheridan Rd.

I held off posting this rink until now because after a very exhaustive search,
only 1992 had any news articles & very little other info could be found.
Hopefully more will come from members.
