City, Jaycees Are Building Skating Rink At Rees Park Junior The Brigham City Chamber of Commerce and the city have joined forces to build an ice skating pond for youngsters (and oldsters) for the coming winter months at the Rees Pioneer park on the west end of Forest street, Ray Andersen, president of the Jaycees said today. The pond, which is being built on the west side of the ball park, will be a 150 feet square, and will be easily accessible with no large banks in the way. A scraper can easily be driven on the pond to clean it following each snow storm. It will be sprayed whenever it requires it, Andersen said. Surveying for the rink was accomplished by Earl Reese, and at the present time a city grader is being used to level it. Andersen pointed out that the leveled area could probably be used during the summer months as a softball diamond. He said that it may be further enlarged in future years. All that will be needed in a few days for skating on the rink as soon as it is leveled is some good cold weather. top-notc- Checking Excavation On New Ice Skating Rink . . . are the city officials and Jaycees who are assisting in the new recreational development.
