Dream World Skating 212 11th Street SW Plaza, Spencer, IA
Dream World Skating was on this street called 11th Street South West. It is not a plaza. It is several freestanding buildings. Next door is the corner spot for a Burger King. It is currently housing a sporting store and a rental.
Not a lot of information regarding to the rink unfortunately. It was opened in 1990 according to Manta. That would be Willa Jean Dobson who bought the rink and opened in 1991 to 2010 when it was sold to a sporting store.
The only thing that the sporting store was registered as LLC was in 2010. But the article was in year 2000 -- I think!
UPDATE:
I got an update! From a skater who skated at Dream World. she send me an obituary of the past owner who owned Dream World from 1991 to 2010. Apparently Dream World was in operations before 1991. The owner from 91 to 2010 was Willa Jean Dobson where she even skated with skaters and taught skaters how to skate.
