Save the Harrington Centre Ice Rink!

The Issue

The Centre Ice Rink in Harrington, DE, is more than just an ice rink—it's a cherished community hub, a training ground for youth athletes, a home to figure skating clubs, and a welcoming space for first-timers to learn and enjoy ice sports.

The Delaware State Fair's decision to close the rink threatens to displace these programs, disrupt community connections, and leave a significant void in Southern and Central Delaware. This rink has provided countless opportunities for recreation, education, and connection, serving as a vital resource for families, athletes, and community members alike.

We urge the Delaware State Fair Board to reconsider this closure and collaborate with the community to explore solutions—whether through fundraising, sponsorships, or partnerships—to keep the Centre Ice Rink open. Together, we can ensure this facility remains a cornerstone of our region, fostering growth, inclusion, and shared memories for years to come.
