Is a Casino Coming to a Rink Near You?

I've seen struggling ice rinks give up a sheet for a bounce trampoline, a sheet for roller hockey, board one up and put in a store and one that rented a sheet out for officer space. But bringing in a casino? That's a new one and don't think it couldn't happen here. The first salvo apparently is headed to the little Ontario community of Walpole Island, just across Anchor Bay from Macomb County. The parents are upset but it may be out of their control. As absurd as it sounds, don't put it past the entrepreneurial Native American communities in Michigan to do the same to help "revive" some struggling rinks. What's the problem? If I have to explain it, that's a bigger problem.  You can read the Walpole Island story by clicking below.
