  When we say, "It's Fun you can Feel" it's more than just a slogan - It's Sk8'n Reality !!

on the other hand …

so we have reserved two special Sk8'n sessions for the most skillful of our valued Sk8'n friends

Friday & Saturday Nite Sk8’n sessions (7:00 - 11:00) are totally suited for the more seasoned &

experienced Sk8’er who is downright serious about Sk8’n – one who enjoys more adult-oriented

Moreover the Nite Sk8’er also enjoys freestyle Sk8’n … trucking … jamsk8'n … couple dancing

… and other, skillful forms of Sk8’n styles suited to the advanced & intermediate Sk8’er

& while beginner Sk8'ers are always welcome, less experienced Sk8'ers may notice the

Sk8'n pace on Friday & Saturday Nites is much more robust than Fun & Family

Sk8'n Sessions held on weekends, weekdays & on Tuesday & Thursday Nites

so, Nite Sk8'ers ...

Welcome to your page - the Nite Sk8'ers page !!

 Sk8'n Anecdotages

(Def:  strongly inclined to tell reminiscent tall Sk8'n tales - fact or fiction)

Roller Sk8'n into History - circa 1760's

Joseph Merlin crashes (literally) a masquerade party by Sk8'n in on his metal-wheeled boots

while playing his violin - and proceeds to crash with a splash into the mirrored wall

 * your Sk8 Center has no mirrors around the rink - now you know why !! *

National Museum of Roller Skating & James L. Plimpton

The National Museum of Roller Skating - Lincoln, Nebraska, boasts the largest and most

unique collection of roller Sk8's in the world - included is the James L. Plimpton

collection of roller Sk8's.  Plimpton (1828 - 1911) patented what is considered

to be the forerunner of the modern roller Sk8.  He opened the first roller

Sk8'n rinks in New York City and Rhode Island in 1863 ...

One of your Sk8 Center crew members has a pair of roller Sk8's that nearly

dates to the time of Plimpton's original patented Sk8's - here's a pic ...
