I would sincerly like to express my gratitude at
this time, to Mr. Foley without who's help I would have been unable to compile this paper
and for the time he took to discuss the business with me.
"
"History
The Art Thompson Arena located in the town of Pickering, in the region of Durham,
is a private enterprize. Originally six men interested in minor hockey wanted to build an
arena. Meetings were arranged and finally four of these men decided to enter into
partnership. In 1967 they bought the 6 acre site and arranged a mortgage.
Action did not take place until 1971. By this time the land had appreciated and the
company had sufficient equity to obtain a bank loan to finance the arena.
There were three main areas of consideration financial, legal, and construction.
During 1967, they registered as a legal corporation.
A problem with zoning occurred. The land was not designated as commercial property.
A letter from the bank confirmed the seriousness of this matter and a request for re-zoning
was made. The local government had to send this request to the Ontario Municipal Board.
This took time but eventually the request was granted.
Before actual construction could begin they surveyed many arenas and kept abreast of the
hockey scene. Every attempt was made to incorporate the most modern equipment.
They held small meetings and had big plans. Arrangements
for finance projections were made and finally a letter of
"
"-2-
intent from the bank was sent. The men had convinced the bank that they had sufficient
backing and were capable of success.
Each of these men were involved in the contracting business and therefore had a pooling
of resources in choosing the tenders. They contacted many architects in southern Ontario
but found that they did not specialize in arenas. They found contractors had the most
experience in building arenas in the area, knew the mistakes they had made and were able
to correct them afterwards.
Contractors brought their proposals. They kept the building within the limits of its purpose
and in 1972 a letter of intent was sent obligating them to Roxson Contractors.
The ice machinery which will be discussed later in this paper, was under separate contract.
The building was completed in 1972 and later that year plans for expansion for two twelve
month sheets were underway. A double sized arena must operate an average of 155 hours
per week within the metro area to break even. This is nearly seventy-eight hours per week
for each pad. Considering that the prime hours are from 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. you can
only count on five hours per day, five nights per week. This gives up a total of twenty-five
hours per week. There are fifteen prime hours per weekend bringing your total ice rental to
forty hours per sheet times two equals eighty hours. What this means is that
"
"-3-
your profit depends on how well you can sell your slow ice time.
The plant is designed so that there is no need for engineers.
It contains the most up to date equipment in the world and is totally automated.
By law, the requirements for a refrigerator operator are dropped in their case.
"
"-4-
Refrigeration Equipment
The first refrigeration plant consisted basically of 100 hp and two 30 hp compressors,
an evaporator condensor, and brine cooler at a rated capacity of 107.4 tons of refrigeration
when cooling 1300 USGPM of 1.2 specific
gravity brine 20 F to 18 F. This allowed for one eight month ice surface and one twelve
month ice surface.
In order to maintain the year round ice surface that was needed after one year's operation
on both rinks, new equipment had to be installed. The new plant consists of two 50 hp six
cylinder ammonia compressors, an evaporator condensor, and a tube brine cooler.
It has a rated capacity of 72 tons of refrigeration when cooling 850 USGPM of 1.2 specific
gravity brine from 20 F to 18 F at 10 F evaporating temperature. The total new compressor
plant has a total of 172.4 tons of refrigeration.
The former refrigeration plant and the new plan are cross connected on the brine side only
with the ammonia side operating as a separate ammonia brine balance charge system.
The original cost of the equipment was $67,500 the addition to the system was $26,660
making a total cost of $94,160 for refrigeration of the Twin pad arena.
"
"-5-
Size and Shape
Dimensions: The building itself is 210' long x 20' eave
height. The snow load is 34 lbs, per square foot on the roof and the wind load is 20 lbs.
per square foot. These meet the requirements of the
""National Building Code of Canada"" and the Ontario Department of Labour.
The wall paneling is bonderized after galvanizing then coated with a factory applied
bake-on finish in a choice of ten colours. Wall paneling is attached to secondary structural
steel members with colour matched nylon head fasteners.
The wall paneling at the front elevation extends to the eave height only, above a concrete
ledge block wall. The wall paneling at the rear and sides extend down to a concrete block
wall 10' high.
The building contains two arenas each official size, 85' x 190'. Between the two arenas on
the main level are dressing rooms, offices, proshop, skate sharpening and in the north
arena a large spectator gallery with bleachers capable of seating about 3,000.
On the second floor is an office two galleries, washrooms, lounge and concession.
"
"-6-
Adaptability
The structure is strictly designed for ice because of sand floors.
Concrete floors are approximately another $80,000. Economically there is no way they
could find another sport to collect the equal revenue of ice.
They looked into indoor tennis and entertainment but they did not find higher revenue
potentialities.
At the moment it is single purpose but in future it is possible to convert the north arena
into tennis courts by adding the special concrete flooring. It is not feasible to do so at this
time however.
"
"-7-
Special Design Features
A sound system for each rink was installed and consists of the following:
Two center columns each containing eight
inch speakers model C860 from Radio Speakers
of Canada and each is capable of 11 watts audio.
Each speaker has its own 70 volt line transformer
and each column is wired for 32 watts.
Total power of the rink is 64 watts. The columns are over the blue lines in the center of the
ice. All material in the columns are weatherproofed.
A microphone may be taken onto the ice for presentations without getting feedback.
There is 360 disbursements with no feedback because of the way the speakers are
mounted.
The amplifier is a TOA TA 248 110 watt PA amplifier with a five line speaker selector and
am/fm tuner. The advantage of this amplifier is that one can drive both rinks at the same
time yet with a moment's notice the two may be separated. Simply push two buttons and
turn the other amplifier on to achieve the separation.
A tape recorder or record player may be used with either.
Each amplifier has three microphone inputs plus an all call button which will override
everything else.
The intercom system is very simple in design and easy to operate.
They require a minimum of maintenance and can be installed in stages if so desired.
The price per phone is $46.50 and one power supply is needed for the whole system.
The price of this is $40.00.
"

The budget for this sound system was as follows:
4 center columns @ $125.00---------- $ 500.00
2 TOA TA 248 amplifiers @ $377.05--------- 754.10
3 Astatic Model 810 microphones
@ $89.95---------- 254.85
5 speakers in cafeteria @ $17.50-------- 87.50
1000' cable @ $45.00m--------- 45.00
500' microphone cable @ $140.00m--------- 70.00
--------- $1,711.45
Labour @ 40 manhours --------- .....400.00
---------- $2,111.45

Defects
There are no major defects in light of the building's intended purpose.
Mr. Foley stated that long range plans may include increasing the number of showers.
There are also thoughts of turning the utility room into a pub. Mr. Foley further pointed out
that most curlers, baseball fans, and horsetrack betters go to drink and socialize and a
high revenue is made in the bars. This would mean extending the utility room to create a
canopy over the front entrance. There are drawbacks to this proposal such as rowdiness
and profane language that must foe considered.
The only problem that was obvious was the traffic control. There is no means of preventing
a person paying for the south arena from viewing the north. If a Junior B game is playing
and the Pickering Panthers charge to see the game, people from the other arena may
watch the game for little or no fee.
By putting outside curtains on the windows and checking tickets at the doors control would
be assured. However, this involves the expense of curtains and additional staff.
A simpler solution might be to rent the south ice for practices only and issue pass cards for
those in the Practice. They would be allowed to see the remainder of the game if their
practice was over. Only those with passes would be allowed in the building.
"
"-10-
Indoor Surface Materials
The floors are placed over granular beds topped with compacted sand and filled to provide
a smooth, level, surface. I have provided a chart showing the Room Finish Schedule.
This shows all surface materials used and where they were used.
As Mr. Foley explained, there is still a great deal of painting to be done but it is not included
in this year's budget. It is in the long range forecast. Similarily the parking lot is not entirely
paved at the present date.
"
"-11-
Lighting
All fluorescent lamp ballasts are high power with rapid start for nominal circuit voltage of
120 volts, 60 cycle, with gold label automatic reset and all are standard cool white.
The arena lamps are mercury vapour clear type. All of these lights can be seen on the
lighting diagram found in this paper. All of these fixtures are grounded.
There are forty foot candles at 12"" on the arena surface.
Note: The ice is not painted white because figure skaters can't trace for patchwork.
Although this aids the figure skaters the hockey players prefer painted ice so that
illumination is increased. A solution might be to paint the north sheet and leave the south
sheet clear.
"
"-12-
Heating
The heating is by hot water through the center core. Next year there are plans to put radiant
electric heat over the stands on the north arena. This doesn't cause heat until it hits an
object. Thus, the ice is not heated but the public are kept comfortable.
The temperature of the spectators' gallery will never be too warm.
If the temperature is kept cool enough people will want to ""warm up"" with a cup of coffee.
"
"-13-
Aesthetic Appearance
Indoors
Outdoors
The building is planned so that finishing of the building is over a four year period.
Part of the interior has been painted. Completion of the painting program is planned to be
this year. ""Within two years it will look much better"" stated Mr. Foley. Considering
that the building was planned to be functional and not extravagant it meets its intended
purpose.
"
"-1 4-
Parking and Related Facilities
When agreements for construction (with the town council) were made the arena was to
have all the parking area paved. Further agreements have been negotiated to allow for
completion of paving in the projected budgets. The two acres of parking in existence at
the present time were valued at $29,000 in 1972. There are approximately two more
acres to pave and installation of ten bus stalls is required by council.
"
"-15-
Drainage and Foundation
After soil tests were completed, drainage piping was installed at 20' centers at the base of
the excavation connecting the collector pipe to the storm drainage system.
The drainage pipe is 4"" in diameter with 4"" crushed stone around it. Granular ""B""
material back-filled the excavation after the drainage system and insulation was installed.
Placed over the compacted fill was a 2"" rigid urethene board. Finally piping for the
refrigeration unit was installed.
"
"-16-
Material Endurance
The building has life expectance of fifty to sixty years. The life of the steel support in the
structure is far longer than the design of any new arena.
A new roof is budgeted for every ten years. Mr. Foley explained that this depends on the
location of your building for example, a roof near the ocean may last six years,
while one in a high polution zone might last only five years.
The Art Thompson Arena is Keeping up-to-date by replacing equipment and keeping the
most modern machinery at hand. Using there procedures their products will remain in
excellent condition.
"
"-17-
Administration
Because this is a privately run organization and the ice time is rented out,
there is no need for memberships. Summer hockey schools are run and memberships
are needed for the hockey schools. I have included brochores of these schools on the
following pages.

BRAD PARK
SUMMER HOCKEY SCHOOL
1974
"A MESSAGE FROM BRAD
In recent years there has been a rapid increase in the number of hockey schools in Canada
and the United States. The teaching methods at these schools are as varied as the
number of schools.
And yet more and more parents are expressing dissatisfaction with certain aspects of the
programmes at these schools. The parents would like to see more individual instruction in
hockey skills for their boys. They are tired of seeing the disappointment in their son’s face
because the advertised ‘star’ does not show up or attends only for a short
autograph-session.
The programme at our school has been specifically designed with these complaints in
mind. We limit our class size to 35 boys only. Accordingly each boy can receive much
more individual attention by our professional instructors. The instructors at our school are
all professional athletes. I have chosen them specifically because they enjoy working with
boys and have that rare ability to impart knowledge to the boys. Both myself and all my
instructors will be on the ice every day to teach the boys. We hope to create a fun
atmosphere at the school for each boy. Not only will he progress faster but for him hockey
will still be fun.

Public liability and Insurance
There are three main areas of concern when considering insurance:
1. Finance 2.Public liability and 3.Protection against Damages.
Finance: If net worthe is increasing must supply funding incase a partner dies.
Here and agreement sets out terms. This takes into account their present value but earning
aspect for the years to come are calculated by a formula. A buy and sell agreement is not
only a big factor but a big expence for this company. That is why they carry insurance to fund
the purchase.
Public Liability: If you own something it is your ultimate responsibility no matter how many
wavers you sign you have the responsibility for the purpose of business.
That is why the arena is covered for up to 1 million dollars.
Fire, Flood, and Damage: In this ease the arena is covered in the event that business is
interrupted. This covers not only the loss of revenue while out of business,
but also pays for appreciation during that time.
"

Public Relations Program:
The Art Thompson Arena provides a service to the community that definitely increases public
awareness of their program. When the slack hours were discovered, letters were sent to all
the schools in the Durham Region School Board. The letters stated that the school would be
allowed to use the arena at no charge. The only stipulation was that they bring the students
around noon so that the concession could be opened and they could break even on the cost
to open the building. The lights cost $10.00 per hour to operate and two women work in the
concession so the building is not inexpensive to operate. It has been found that in the past an
avetage of $1.00 per skater is made on the concession so if fifty people come $50.00 will be
made.
Another service is being made to a local dancing teacher. She wanted to rent a room to
teach her ballet student a few hours per week. They make use of this room for only $5.00 per
week. Again this proceedure is good public relations and makes people in the community
more aware of the facility.
As Mr. Foley stated, because it is a private organization they have to pay taxes that
municipally operated facilities don't. In fact, they have receive grants.
So, they as a private firm have to be competative and create a market by making good use
of their public relations, offering better facilities, and competative prices.
He also brought out an excellent point when he stated that he could not issue debentures
when he needed the money

Concession Control
Cost control cards are maintained to retain a perpetual inventory.
At one time they were taking a daily physical inventory but that is now weekly because the
control is excellent. Constant costs on everything are kept in order to arrive at a selling price.
One trick used is to make popcorn after people arrive so they smell it.
Salty-popcorn encourages people to buy drinks. In the kitchen they prepare their own pizza,
ham and bacon on a kaizer, chilli, and rice krispie squares.
The menue is varied so that regular customers don't get tired of the selection.
They found that tastes vary in different areas. They tried certain products that worked in some
areas that did not work in this area.
