Indoors -
Located in Bellmore, Long Island at the south end of Newbridge
Road in Newbridge Park.
One full-sized, hockey rink.
When you enter the facility you notice a very busy central lobby.
Within it are a pro shop, snack bar, arcade games, skate rental booth,
and changing area.
The centerpiece of the lobby is a wonderful, working (in winter)
circular fireplace.
They play pop music from a local radio station
and it seems that they won't mind if you wear a walkman.
There are coin lockers (cost 50 cents).
Parking is free and plentiful.
