It's the icing on top of the cake. Spectra Place will be unveiling it's ice surface on Monday morning on the eve of the opening of the Fleck's Hockey School which will kick off the on-ice season for Spectra Place for the 2011-12 year.
The process of the ice making for Spectra Place has been ongoing for the past couple weeks. The good news is according to Facilities Manager Garth Forrester is there hasn't been any hiccups. "They started the process last weekend and we've had no problems at all, it's been very smooth sailings and it's going to be ready for Monday."
Forrester added putting the ice in Spectra Place has been a lot easier than the Civic Auditorium.
"The ice going into Spectra was a lot easier and a lot quicker than the Civic so that made the job of the ice makers that much better, it's been a lot easier for them."
Forrester said that "the preparation work that's been done this week included putting the logos on the ice and there's flooding over top of those. The crew has been slowly building up the ice."
The Fleck's Hockey school will be the main occupants of Spectra Place for the first three weeks, which will be followed by more boy's and girl's hockey schools until the end of August when the Bruins begin training camp.
