let me guess...Dembo and Star would like to see SMG take over the management of the McDonald Center? 

Hmmmm...the only state owned ice arena in town charges nearly half the price/hour as all the muni rinks and you wonder why prime ice is being left unused at the city rinks? Price it fairly and it will be utilized. Dembo, Star, while you still have your audit and ice books open, let's also look into the confilct of interest that currently exists between the cities only privately owned rink, it's major tenants and the SMG Boeke/Dempsey arena manager. Everyone using a city owned rink is being forced to subsidize the profits for the only privatly owned rink in town! Letting a privately run rink dicate the price the public has to pay for a city owned/operated facility is just wrong! $400/hr is highway robery and backroom politics!
