I thought I had heard rumors about someone building 2 new ice rinks in Bixby. Does anyone know if this is true, or have any info on this?

There's an expansion for the Oilers ice training center on the construction wires, not sure if that's part of what you heard.  What I read said a 30,000 sq. ft. ice rink that will join the existing facility.  I don't know if that's the building area or just the ice pad.

that is probably part of the Eddie Sutton athletic complex that is being built.  From the sounds of this thing it will be like the Bernice Jones Athletic complex in Springdale.



Thank you!!!! That is it. I found this link to confirm it. Do you know if they have started construction on it yet?

I have seen that they dug up the ground at the Oilers Ice Center, however I think the rinks in Bixby may hurt the OIC.
