Do you remember The Arcadia Skating Rink on Woodward?
My parent use to go there back in the 1940s. My second sister and I use to “live” up in there. Besides skating, there were shows there. As a young teen, I attended the Christmas Teenage Dance on Christmas day in 1961.
They had Mary Wells there in 1966. Great show.
But we just skated and had fun until the beginning of 1962. That’s when the gangs started “hanging” around. It got so bad that my sister and I stopped going to the Arcadia. How about you.
Did you use to skate at the Arcadia?
