This will include:\n-Instruction on the types of glass that are allowed for the upper part of the barrier\n-Instruction on the types of plastic used for the lower boards\n-How the paint is applied for distinguishing marks underneath the ice\n-Other logistical components.\n-Thermometer And Snowflake Icon\n-Ice and Floor Refrigeration\n-Due to the warm conditions of the Upstate\, many people in our area wonder how we make and develop the ice for our rink. Students learn how the ice is formed with thousands of gallons of water. \nThe Zamboni\nEveryone loves watching this machine resurface the ice. In this section of the tour\, students are instructed on how the Zamboni functions to maintain the ice. The Pavilion instructor demonstrates how the ice surface is maintained by checking the temperature of the ice\, the depth of the ice in various areas\, and resurfacing the ice. \nSkate Sharpening\nAs the tour continues\, students learn about different components of ice skating. They learn about the steel blade construction of skates and how the blades are maintained through sharpening. Our expert Sharpener explains how the thin blades have hollows\, rockers\, and edges which allow skaters to balance and turn on the ice. He will also demonstrate how the grinding wheel precisely cuts into the blade to create a fresh hollow for sharpening.
