While the floor of the main bowl at Pegula Ice Arena has not yet taken the familiar form of a hockey rink (at last check of the webcam, the still-gray and unmarked surface received another pass from the hose at around 8:00 Monday evening), there's actually a pretty good reason for that - ice-building work has been focused on the smaller community rink. As the name implies, the 300-seat auxiliary sheet will primarily host community events, youth hockey and Penn State's ACHA teams.
The following comes from rink employee Madeline Chandler, via Twitter and Instagram, at 6:04 p.m. Monday. She captioned it: "After a long day the ice is in at the community rink at the Peg."
Unreal. Keep up the amazing work, guys.
The main rink had its white base coat go down around 7am!
