There is something being built in New York state that will instantly take you back to your childhood if you grew up in the seventies and eighties. The largest outdoor roller skating rink is being built in Western New York and opens in August. It will be worth the four-hour drive on the Thruway to enjoy this amazing roller rink.
As a kid, in the '80s, my sisters and I used to go to Guptill's Skating Arena every weekend. It was really cool to see that rollerskating is making a come back and a national show highlighted our very own Guptill's that is the oldest running rink in America.
It happens twice a year: here in the Capital Region as the seasons are changing people empty their homes to a field in Latham and the rest of us dive in, ready for a bargain!
