Rodeo arena prepares for ice rink

The Teton County Fairgrounds outdoor rodeo arena is closed to horseback riders now through the end of winter to transition the arena into the Fairgrounds ice-skating rink. Water to the arena has been turned off and the facility has been winterized. The arena has also been rolled, hard-packed for future flooding as an ice arena, and not in condition to accommodate horses. That conversion usually occurs in mid-December. The ice-rink is then maintained by Parks and Recreation Department and is free to the public.
