Roller Garden with Dinosaur

Built in the 1930s, this large indoor roller rink has been in continuous use. On the very outside on top is a large dinosaur which has adorned the top for at least 50 years.

Located right off Hwy 100 and Lake Street. The facility sits right on Lake Street when one exits.

[John F, 04/18/2009]

This is a smaller dinosaur -- probably a Sinclair dino -- though it's painted with large polka dots.
