Overview

Mission

To provide and operate a dedicated ice arena for the children, families, and community in order to provide consistent and additional recreation and entertainment opportunities

What it reported doing in 2021

Program expenses associated with providing an ice arena to the local community

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
