Good news for figure skaters and hockey fans. Essex County recently announced the start of a project to install a new refrigeration system and playing surface in Rink 2 of the Codey Arena in West Orange. The upgrades will improve the efficiency of the rink operations and provide skaters with a modern and safe surface to skate. The improvements are the first major infrastructure upgrades made to Rink 2 since it opened in 1983.
