Roll Land, Norwood's Route I roller skating rink, will celebrate its first anniversary on Thanksgiving Eve with a gala party from 7.30 to 11 p.m. and from 11 p, m. to 3 a. m. A 35-pound Vega baked cake will be cut in honor of the occasion and a grand march, favors, balloons, and noisemakers will add to the festivity. A consignment of Hammond electric organ records has been bought especially for roller skating.
All of 75 towns and cities have been represented at various times among Roll Land patrons. Out-of-town churches, schools, and clubs have made it a favorite rendezvous for skating parties, choosing it from the 25 rinks in the Greater Boston vicinity. The clean and up-to-date rink has in a year become one of the most successful local businesses. An air washer is now being installed which in eliminating all dust will further add to the facilities available.
A new, spacious lobby and check room has just been completed so that the skating crowds can be handled more conveniently. Unlimited parking facilities, well lighted, add to convenience, while inside the color lights and the spotlight enhance the novelty.
