Center Ice Scholarship

Center Ice Foundation is also currently developing a Central Ohio health, wellness, sports & recreation district, providing access to sports facilities in a currently underserved community. In addition to 2 sheets of ice (the first in the region to be adaptive sports-enabled), the project includes an indoor turf field house, and sports entrepreneur incubation space. Adjacent will be a multi-specialty medical office, restaurant & retail, and other ancillary and symbiotic uses.

Projects like ours are economic development & tourism drivers and recreational amenities to support a healthy community. But communities don’t generally support tax levies as a funding mechanism. In addition to a generous land donation from the City of Reynoldsburg, our capital stack includes a number of different components: corporate & grassroots philanthropic support via an aggressive capital campaign, unique public funding mechanisms, and traditional commercial lending. Our business plan & pro forma show cashflow positivity as early as year 2.
