Default Are These Georgia Roller Skating Rinks Still Open?

I just noticed that the Web site for Spinners Skating Center at 1150 West Avenue in Cartersville, Georgia is no longer online (spinnersskating.com). Does anybody know if the Spinners Rink closed?

Here's a list of all the roller skating rinks I've been able to find in Georgia:
Georgia Roller Skating Rinks Are all of those rinks still open?

Thanks Tremor! Now that I know it's your rink I added these comments to the listing:

"The Skate-A-Round USA Roller Rink is the home rink of the Classic City Roller Girls. The rink's public sessions include an adult night on the first Sunday of every month. Skate-A-Round USA is also known as the Athens Skate-A-Round Family Skate Center."

Is there anything else interesting I could say about that rink? Do it have a speed, artistic, or roller program? Have they hosted any non roller derby competitions?

Default Skate Palace - Newnan Georgia

I'm sorry to report that Skate Palace in Newnan Georgia is no longer with us. They sold the building about 18 months ago and it is now some type of warehouse.

Bummer. But thanks for letting me know. I moved that one into "closed Georgia rinks". Sigh...

Spinners is gone....the rink lost most of it's parking lot when a road was widened and the owner received enough from the loss of the parking lot to close up ...
