Both of Google Map. 2007 followed by 2011. Both are not that great photos especially the 2007 edition. Hard to read, I know. And the 2011.. better picture but what I mean is that the sign isn't professional. Easy to be blown off and gone if the wind can carry through the air. Or at least stuck in that pine forest behind it. Unprofessional appearance can turn off customers. its true. Now nothing is on the signs. Perhaps sold by the auction people.
All four courtesy of Page Auction. That's too bad they did not take any photos of the rink inside! Ahh. They could have asked for the keys to go in! Silly! Instead, I can only provide their photo of beautiful scenery. is that beautiful background! I love it! And beautiful day for the photographs! Awesome! Ahh, are you ready for summer folks? Haha.

First came was Rockwell Skating Rink which began in 1994, then it became Wizard of Wheels Skating Rink then finally, Roane County Skating Rink at a beautiful spot on 1230 North Gateway Ave, Rockwood, Tenessee.
I do not have much information about opening and closing. Only that it said to be Rockwell Skating Rink that opened in 1994 but somehow whenever, it became Wizard of Wheels. Then they folded and Roane County Skating Rink opened sometimes between 2007 and 2011 according to Google Map. They did not last long and were on the market through Coldwell Banker till they put up for auction. The fate is unknown.
The Interior.
N/A.
The Exterior.
It was low pitch Gable roof Free-Span Steel Truss Steel-Walled Warehouse - like Building. Tan color.
The parking lot which is much bigger than the rink at 26,000 Square Feet compared to the building 22,000 Square Feet. The whole property had the rink set far back away from the road and had a long narrow parking lot with thick Pine forest sits in front of the rink. It gave that cozy feel of a location on this very hilly/low mountain area.
