. Campaign going well New Scugog Community Memorial Arena Committee Chairman Howard Hall told Township Council Monday that he expects another $50,000. from the public sub- scription campaign to raise money for construction of the new arena. y In a report to council Monday night that led to the acceptance of the tender of C.D.S. Ltd., he told council that $88,393. has been raised in cash and pledges to date with only Port Perry can- vassed. Even in Port Perry, he said, a number of can- vassers have not reported. A campaign in the rest of, the township will begin shortly. Money raised through yet public subscription will be matched dollar for dollar by a Wintario grant. A number of .councillors as well as Mayor Lawrence Malcolm have already indicated that money raised over and above the original estimates should be used to lower the planned debenture. The township can get a debenture of up to $284,000. Would like to use PUC property for arena well Scugog Township coun- cil Monday night asked for a study of the feasibility of utilizing the existing P.U.C. property well to supply water to the new Scugog Community Memorial Arena. If it's possible, then council will have saved even more money on the project that is now just under the $760,000. target figure set down over one and a-half years ago. . : Council instructed the new arena committee to investigate a well water supply for the arena after it I was discovered the cost of extending village water to the site would cost almost $80,000. . A Totten Sims Hubicki report to council on the feasibility of such a well states that it appears: pos- sible, and would cost around $14,000. The new arena commit- tee thinks a well could be installed for a lot less...about $5,000., while the council route may be even more economical. Township works depart- ment people will test the well tosee if it has the capacity to handle the extra flow. CNA Re x ZY A PA BN RATT 4 Aa RANE EEE ER "ns i The price is right and. .. " PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, Jan. 14, 1976 -- 9 New arena features many extras * While perhaps. the most amazing thing 'about Scu- gog's new arena is the fact that it will be built for just under the amount budgeted a"year and a half ago, the arena will have some fea- tures found only in much more expensive facilities, The design of the building, for example, is attractive, low, yet functional. The masonry block building will provide a basically sound construction, yet a decor- ative "touch has not been omitted, making. the build- ing not only sturdy but at- tractive. i The front of the building facing Regional Road 8 on the west side of the lot adjacent to the Ontario Hydro lot features a ledge block front. Not only will this serve a cosmetic funct- ion, but also has a practical purpose. The blocks will go right up to the roof, lessen- ing the costs of maintenance and chances of vandalism. rectangular in- shape with overall dimensions of 245 feet by 120 feet, the arena features a regulation-size ice surface flanked by enpugh seating on the south side of the building to seat 940 people.

The arena also features a separate entrance for players leading to the dressing rooms, avoiding the situation where teams with all their equip- ment must go through the main foyer. From the dress- ing rooms to the ice surface, players will not have to climb steps. Ramps will be installed in corridors lead- ing to the ice. With the length of the build- ing facing Regional Road 8, the main entrance or foyer is on the south side, on the extreme east end of the building. entrance is* provided not only to keep down heat loss, but also to avoid drafts in the building.

Also on the extreme east end of the building is the ice-making facility. Players, penalty and time- keeper benches are all on_ the north side of the build- ing, away from southside' spectator seating. The flat roof of the building will have an inside wood decking for insulation pur- poses, a feature that, will possibly help eliminate humidity problems and add to the overall appearance of the building. The arena has been design- ed in such a way that a second ice surface "pad" can be added in the future making best use of existing facilities, thereby avoiding duplication of such things as ice-making facilities and entrances. If and when it is decided to add the second pad, both the property lay- out and building design allows for the addition to be added on the east end of the building, either extending the rectangular shape of the building or in an L-shape fashion. Other features include: under-ice heating system for _ extended season usage; pro- tective plexiglass layer on dasher boards to lower maintenance costs; protec- tive plexiglass spectator shielding around ice sur- face; air-cooled brine type refrigeration system, a sy- stem that greatly reduces water consumption (the arena's water needs will be met through a well system); public washrooms equipped to serve the handicapped (ramps instead of steps for wheelchairs, etc. This is featured in a number of other areas in the building); Heated spectator seating area by means of overhead heaters.
