Roller skating returned to the Fleetwood-Jourdain Community Center for the first time this year. “It’s so fun,” said Jenna Fahey, who took son Clive to Roller Skating Day. The rink was an important part of the center for decades. That ended when Fleetwood’s basketball court flooded in 2018 and the floor was damaged. Skating returned late last year with a temporary plastic mat, disco lights and a DJ. Hundreds of people of all ages took to the new floor at 1655 Foster St. Click the gallery below for a look at the ups and downs of some of the intrepid skaters. (Photos by Richard Cahan)
