Starlight Skating Rink Jay Jay Road, Mims, FL
Starlight Skating Rink Jay Jay Road, Mims, Florida. Actual address would be 2820 West Jay Jay Road. Known as JJ Road. Starlight was once an outdoor roller rink which was behind current C-store, a beverage store today. The map showed there is no concrete ground anymore but all sand and grass. I have pretty good idea roughly where thanks to Google Map.
Most people commented on Facebook groups about this rink that it was in 1960s and early 1970s. Roughly there. It was outdoors and likely means Concrete floor to skate. No canopy or roof though. If it rained, no skating that day.
The Interior.
None! It was an outdoors roller rink.
The Exterior.
Likely they had concrete floor. It is no longer there but the scar of sort is there. It is all fenced in now that you could not see it but if you were to park at the C-store, you can take a look from the fence and see the spot. See disclaimer below.
