Here’s what we know:

  • The revitalization of Skate Station USA is the vision of Columbia resident Steve Ware — owner of River’s Edge Retreat.
  • The renovated skating rink will also include batting cages, basketball, and an inside golf driving range.
  • The grand re-opening will take place Jan., 13 from 6-9 p.m.
  • The night of the grand opening through the weekend will feature special skating competitions + DJs.
  • To celebrate the re-opening, anyone born in 1987 or earlier can enter a raffle to win a prize.
