     Privatization of 
     
     UPEI Rink 
     
    
   
   
    
     By Bruce Henry 
     
    
   
   
    
     On June 2, 1997, The Guardian printed UPEI's call for 
     
     proposals as they began the search for individuals or organi- 
     
     zations interested in taking control of the operation of the UPEI 
     
     Rink. The University had two primary requirements: 
     
    
   
   
    
     1) The rink is to be operated as a traditional ice rink 
     
     operation serving the ice needs of the community and the 
     
     University. 
     
    

    
     2) The new operator will assume the complete manage- 
     
     mentand financial responsibilities of the facility forthe duration 
     
     of the lease agreement. UPEI will assume no responsibility 
     
     for expenses incurred to operate the rink! 
     
    
   
   
    
     The UPEI rink revenue came from sources such as the 
     
     overnment, the general public and external groups like minor 
     
     key. On average the university did not incur any poe 
     
     above the annually budgeted amount forrink ion. Unfor- 
     
     tunately necessary renovations were not incl inthe budget. 
     
     To make up the operating costs, the Sports Centre 
     
     incorporated a three year plan. This three year plan only 
     
     survived for one year before the university decided that finan- 
     
     cially the rink was unfeasible. 
     
    

    
     “There have been some really difficult decisions, includ- 
     
     ing realizing that we can no longer afford to operate the rink,” 
     
     said Elizabeth Epperly in a press release. President Epperly 
     
     said the rink gong a major overhaul costing $1 million. 
     
    

    
     Sports PEI, a non profit organization, agreed to the 
     
     University’s operating proposal, and now manage the rink for 
     
     one year. One reason for Sport PEI’s decision is to have space 
     
     available for amateur sports.
