WE ARE ON THE MAP!!!!
Awesome!! After 6 years, $225,000.00 raised, and thousands of volunteer hours donated TBIR has successfully built a new facility. The current building is 100x140 with a roof and 2 walls and orientated to minimize the sun exposure to the ice surface. There is a temporary storage shed donated for the season. Currently, we are raising the necessary funds to build the warming hut this coming spring. Upon construction of the warming hut, Phase I will officially be completed.
TBIR has donated this facility to The City of Victor in exchange for the 99 year lease on 3 acres in Pioneer Park. Bottom line is that this is an affordable venue for recreational activities, concerts, shows, conventions, and general sheltered uses. (Please see accepted uses as described in the Lease agreement and Management terms) Organizations, families, or businesses have the capacity to rent the facility for nominal fees or a % of proceeds.
The boards are now in place for the winter ice season. TBIR will be developing a winter program and schedule similar to past years. (Please see our events tab for detailed information.) Please respect all rules and regulations as posted. Outside of the scheduled events the facility is open and free to the public.

Other News: TBIR received a $10,000.00 grant for equipment from the Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation. We have purchased 125 pairs of skates (both figure skating and hockey) for the public to rent for $2.00. We also plan to purchase helmets, an additional hockey goal and some sticks, and pads. TBIR recently received a $1000.00 quick grant from the Community Foundation of Teton Valley to help purchase a skate sharpener. We will establish drop off and pick up times for sharpening at a fee of $5.00.
Thanks to all who have donated time, material, or funds to the project. We could not have gotten to where we are without the community support. There are still banner spaces available to rent if you wish to advertise your company. Please inquired within!
We have succeeded and we we have done so in challenging economic times. This is tremendous! As the economy continues to rebound I personally feel that the future is bright and promising for TBIR, the community, and the vision we behold.
Thanks to all of the supporters,
Ari D. Kotler, president |
