This
skating rink was constructed in 1908 by the
local streetcar company, the Helena Light & Railway Co. It was located about 1000' northeast of the Broadwater Natatorium.
The rink was created after the devastating floods of June 1908 necessitated blowing up a dam on Ten Mile Creek, just on the north side of the Broadwater Hotel, which was used to flood an area for skating.
Newspaper mentions of the rink appear to end in 1911. |
