History

The original main Rink #1 built back in 1971 has seating for 1,400 spectators, and room for another 500 fans that can watch while standing. Adjacent to Rink #1 is the newer Rink #2 which was added in 1999 to the arena and serves as more of a practice sheet of ice. Rink 2 has only nominal seating for only 200 fans in steel bleachers.

Improvements

The City of Richfield plans to invest $2 million in the building, adding a locker room for the Magicians, expanding the lobby, adding classrooms and a training facility.
