style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Hi,<BR><BR>I would like to invite you to an
informational meeting on Wednesday, November 12th at Moscow City Hall Council
Chambers together with other City, County and community leaders. Within
the next three years, the people running the ice rink will need to determine
where the permanent location of the ice rink will be. As Moscow community
leaders we have the opportunity to keep it here, or let it slip away. <BR><BR>At
this meeting, we will hear some presentations by nationally recognized rink
Architect, Eric Milberger of M2Architects, as well as Steven Peterson of the UI
College of Business and Economics. We will discuss some ideas of keeping the
rink in Moscow, and look at one example of locating it in the Legacy Crossing
area. Please RSVP to me directly and if you are unable to attend, let me know if
there is an alternate person from your organization or board who can attend.
