Get skates on to support rink at the carnival
By Andy Davey
SPONSORS will need to get their skates on if they want to help a Purbeck carnival bring an artificial ice rink to Swanage next summer.Swanage Regatta and Carnival has already raised £1,355 for the rink, which is covered in a kind of plastic ice that will not melt in the July heat.But sponsors have until November 30 to help the group reach its target of £5,700 so it can hire the 35ft square temporary rink for carnival week.
To find out more or to make a donation telephone Mrs Mason on 07751 559093.

Ice rink??? Swanage is already full Carnival Week. Have an ice rink near the station at Christmas for goodness sake!
I wanted to make some smartars$d comment about slippery slopes, but don't think I'll bother.
I go along with the suggestion of having a skating rink at christmas but why not make it part of a winter happening of some sort. Theres no point in adding to the mid summer activities when the place is already full. A decent sized event in early december would be worth supporting. Why not hire a snow making machine and have a tobbogan run on the downs.
