AFTER
a test run with a small artificial skate rink inside a marquee,
local firm Skate Above Zero opened its outdoor rink, which is Olympic
size, by the Floral Hall on Saturday 11 June. The
owner said that:- "I hope we can make a permanent
skating rink in Southport as this would make a fantastic attraction
year in year out. This one is the only one of it type in the
whole of Europe and it will be of huge interest to visitors over
the summer. We also want local bands to play in the band
stand. Anyone interested can pop down and see us most
evenings and at weekends at the rink. We hope this will be a
huge success, just like our last one was early in the
year." For
more information you can ring 0808 100 3252 and also you can book
your time to skate on the same number.
