The City of Hendersonville Parks Department wishes to invite all members of the community to a ceremony to “officially” cut the ribbon and open the In-Line Hockey Facility at Volunteer Park at Arrowhead in Hendersonville. The ceremony will be held at 10:30 AM on Saturday, April 16.

Following the ceremony, youth-league hockey games will be played on the new rinks. Members of the Hendersonville In-Line Hockey Association, Hendersonville Mayor Jamie Clary, Local Elected Officials, City of Hendersonville Staff, The Hendersonville Chamber of Commerce, and members of the community who had a hand in seeing this one of its kind in our state project come to fruition will be on hand.

The facility saw its first activity in December of 2021 when State Wars Hockey held an adult hockey tournament here in Hendersonville. ECHO Hockey hosted two more tournaments in March of 2022. Teams from all across the country and Canada have visited Hendersonville for these events.

In addition, the facility hosted the first-ever Sumner County Men of Honor Awards Luncheon in conjunction with the Hendersonville Chamber of Commerce in March of 2022.

A vision that started nearly four years ago has come to fruition and is already bringing great things to Hendersonville.
