- Expands US Operations with Three-Pad Ice Rink Facility in Illinois -
BURNABY, BC, June 20, 2011 /CNW/ - Canlan Ice Sports Corp.,
industry-leading providers of recreational and leisure multi sport
facilities across North America, today announced the completion of the
previously announced acquisition of the International Ice Centre
("IIC"), a three-ice sheet, 106,000 square-foot facility, situated on 8
acres of land, currently in operation in the Chicago, Illinois suburb
of Romeoville.
Canlan purchased the facility for approximately US$3.8 million and will
fund the acquisition by a combination of cash and debt. The
three-sheet ice sports complex was opened in the fall of 2006 and
originally built at a cost of approximately $13.8 million. The IIC has
recently undergone approximately $450,000 of upgrades and renovations.
As owners and operators of the International Ice Centre, Canlan plans to
offer multiple hockey and skating programs, including the Canlan
Skating Academy, Hockey Academy and the Adult Safe Hockey League, the
world's largest and most successful adult recreational hockey program.
Canlan does not plan any business interruption for the existing IIC
customers and expects to begin offering its branded programs to
complement existing IIC products as early as July.
The Romeoville acquisition furthers Canlan's presence in the US,
representing the third facility it owns or has under management.
