Seekonk Iceland

Seekonk Iceland is a former outdoor arena located in Seekonk, Massachusetts. The arena was constructed in the early 1950's, opening in 1952 and being completed in 1954. The arena was located on the site on Seekonk Raceway. Both facilities were built by stock car pioneer Anthony Venditti, who personally laid all the copper pipe for the refridgeration for the ice surface. He built the rink to be able to provide a year round income to provide for his family as the racetrack only operated during warmer weather. The rink would be used for over two decades. The rink and other structures in the immediate area were razed in 1989. Being located so close to the state border the facility was used by numerous youth and high school teams from both Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
