Have you heard the NEWS!? There’s going to be a 6,000 square foot ICE SKATING RINK in Downtown Tacoma’s poor maligned concrete ocean of a downtown park- Tollefson Plaza!! Ok, so technically this is still a rumor. I heard it from a friend over grilled corn and table wine last night, and now the rumor has hit the twitters. This is the word from TwoFiveTrees, the group headed up by local community organizer Justin Mayfield that is responsible for the beautiful, local, and affordable christmas trees available for sale in Tollefson Plaza each year. They also do the Downtown Tacoma Block Party- more about that later.
I REALLY love the idea of an ice skating rink downtown. I hope there will be hot cocoa. Or Gluewein. This is just too exciting!
