Well, not really -- that's the rink at Cromwell, CT, with 200 x 100 ft.
ice. It's pretty well booked year round w/ all the normal customers that
any other rink has -- especially in CT which has a shortage of available
ice (and not just this time of year:-)). It just happens to be close to
Yale -- a *fortuitous* coincidence since you need Olympic ice to train
for international competition. BTW, you too can rent the ice there for
around $225/hr.!
