4 Coats in two hours might be a record set! "Never seen it before in my 15 years of making ice". Kurt says to the mob of volunteers tonight. That's right; It might be another record set tonight with 15 iceguys on the coldest night of the year. (literally) LOL.
Peter, Craig, Kris (Cameo appearance... again), Chris, Jamie, Andrew P., Andy (needs a haircut. Nice to see you.), Alex, Neil, Peter (where are the seal protestors?), John, Dan, Jeff, Adrian, and Kurt.

Bill, Andrew G., Jamie, Andrew P., Craig, Peter, Russell, Chris, Adrian, Glen, and Kurt... where able to lay down three coats on each tonight. We met a new hopeful iceguy who seemed to be keen, Matt from Huntington hills. Matt just moved in to a place in Huntington and was scouting the NW for a place to skate and found our neck of the woods. Welcome Matt and glad to have you help out.

Overnight temp -4ºC.
The ice has been holding up considering PLUS temperatures we have been having, and Covid-19 bringing more crowds down. (Which is bad on both fronts).
The plan is to flood Thursday night at 8 pm Jan 14th, and Skate at 8 am Friday morning. Be there or B-Square.

Glen, Bill, Andrew P., Craig, Alex, Adrian, Chris, Neil, John and Kurt scraped and flooded after having to kick off a large amount of skaters. (Again).

Craig was down in the afternoon and took these shots. This is not good when you see crowds of people like this. The warm New Year's Day temperatures attracted a mob of people.

They struggled to get people off the ice before Craig, Bill, Dan and Chris scraped and managed to squeeze two coats in on a very warm night. Happy New Year!
