Skate World Makeover

I've written a lot about Lorain's popular Skate World over the years.

Happily, it's been a dependable and wholesome source of local recreation for decades, celebrating its 40th Anniversary back in 2015. Skate World also has a fascinating history, which I wrote about on my "The Motel Inside Skate World" post.

Skate World was most recently in the news at the end of September 2018. That's when its owner, Alice Carter, made the rink readily available to the coaches and teams of the Brookpark Skate Club, who lost their home rink, Brookpark Skateland, to a fire on September 19 (as reported in the Chronicle-Telegram here).

Anyway, the exterior of SkateWorld recently received an attractive makeover.

Here's how it looked after the exterior graphics were refreshed in 2015.

And here is the most recent makeover.
Be sure to check out the Lorain Skate World website.

Here is the latest makeover.
