(Top row) Skater Paul Lapointe, 82, comes to the Driscoll Rink as often as he can and encourages other seniors to join him. "I only took up skating when I retired eighteen years ago. I know there are a lot of people who used to enjoy skating as kids. This is a great chance to have a good time and get a little exercise," said Paul. | ||
