The Aspen Recreation Center and the Lewis Ice Arena
The Aspen Recreation Center was officially opened in April 2003. It contains a lap pool, a family fun pool with a hot tub, kid's center, and the Lewis Ice Arena. All facilities are fully accessible, - pools, bath rooms, showers, etc. For anyone interested be sure to bring a swimming suit. There is a $5.00 charge to use the pools. This is a reduced rate and a real bargain for all that is included.
The Lewis Ice Arena is also fully accessible and was designed to accommodate sled hockey. Doors to the players’ boxes are flush with the ice allowing players to skate off between shifts. The Plexiglas in front of the players’ boxes will be switched from white to clear enabling players to watch the action from the boxes. Each locker room has its own accessible bathroom and showers. We are excited to see how this works for sled hockey and welcome any thoughts you might have on how to make it better for future tournaments.
