The Slater Family Ice Arena underwent an extensive renovation and expansion project, with The Spieker Company at the helm as General Contractor. This ambitious undertaking breathed new life into the existing facility while introducing exciting additions.
A striking new aluminum entry vestibule now welcomes visitors, setting the tone for the modernized arena. Inside, fans and players alike can enjoy an enhanced experience with the addition of a south mezzanine, offering panoramic views of the main rink below. The lobby has been transformed into a showcase of achievement, featuring newly installed trophy cases that proudly display the arena’s accolades.
Comfort and accessibility were key focuses of the renovation. Public restrooms received a complete overhaul, and efforts were made to improve accessibility throughout critical areas of the facility. Behind the scenes, the arena’s infrastructure got a significant boost with updates to the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.
Safety was also a top priority in this renovation. Select zones of the arena now benefit from a limited automatic fire protection system, enhancing overall life safety measures for all who use the facility.
This comprehensive project has successfully modernized the Slater Family Ice Arena, creating a more functional, safe, and impressive venue for sports and events.
