Rotary Rink:
2007-2008 marks the 10th Annual free ice skating
season at
Downtown Buffalo’s only outdoor ice rink.
Located
at the corner of Main and Chippewa Streets
in
Fountain Plaza, Buffalo Place will once again
operate
Rotary Rink for the winter season. In 1998,
Buffalo Place
Inc.
entered into a partnership with the
City of
Buffalo to
operate the Rink and offer FREE
ice-skating. The
program has proven to be very
popular and offers
families the unique opportunity to
skate outdoors in
an urban setting surrounded by
many of Buffalo’s
architecturally significant buildings.
Buffalo Place
has taken on the added responsibility
of
operating all parts of the skating program
internally, adding to rink operations with concession and skate rental counters. Buffalo Place expanded the menu and added more programming throughout the season.
Rotary Rink opened in 1991, the result of 10 years of design and planning. The name Rotary Rink is derived in recognition of the Rotary Club of Buffalo’s commitment to the project and their generous donation of $500,000. If you would like to book a party at Rotary Rink, call Buffalo Place Inc. at 716/856-3150.
