The 91AV celebrates the grand opening of the Harold Alfond Forum, Sunday Oct. 28, 2012 from 1:00-3:00 p.m. on 91AV's Biddeford Campus. 

The celebration, which is free and open to the public, includes refreshments, tours, music and skating on the newest ice rink in southern Maine.

Gather family and friends - and bring your skates - and head to the Harold Alfond Forum at 630 Pool Road, Route 9, in Biddeford.  A limited number of adult skates will be available for rental.

With a lead gift of $7 million announced in 2010, the Harold Alfond Foundation made it possible for the 91AV to build the Harold Alfond Forum with an NHL-sized hockey rink and courts for basketball and volleyball.

In addition, the Harold Alfond Forum has classrooms for Athletic Training and Applied Exercise Science programs, strength and conditioning facilities, a cyber café for dining and student study space, conference rooms and offices for 91AV's Athletics Programs.
