Accessibility Information

Brightspeed Ice Park (BIP) is ADA accessible. If you have specific accessibility needs or questions, please contact Brightspeed Ice Park.

Outside the facility: There are designated accessible parking spaces available, some with room for a ramp. There is a wheelchair accessible on-ramp from the parking lot near the front of the building. At the west entrance, there is a button to open the door to the left.

Inside the facility: Show Me Skate is in the East rink, and you can access the track on the first floor. There is a small bump in the doorway, but it's not a step. To get to the second floor with designated disabled seating, you will find the elevator to the left of the west entrance. The downstairs bathroom only has one designated stall in each. The upstairs bathroom has two designated stalls in each.

Auditory landscape: The East rink of BIP is a large space that will be loud in a room that’s already difficult to hear in. You might consider bringing sound blockers if sensitive to loud noises or bringing translating devices, if needed. The area outside of the rink tends to be quieter.

Land Acknowledgement

We gratefully acknowledge the Indigenous nations on whose ancestral homelands we skate, as well as the diverse and vibrant Native communities who make their home in this area today, including the Kickapoo, the Osage, the Sioux, and the Kaskaskia, among others. We encourage you to learn more about this land and its people by visiting the American Indian Center, the Southwest Missouri Indian Center, or by walking the Trail of Tears Greenway for yourself.

Diversity & Inclusion

Springfield Roller Derby is firmly committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. This means fostering a community where everyone is welcomed, respected, and valued both on and off the track. If this has not been your experience, we encourage you to find a member of our league or contact [email protected]. We reserve the right to eject any attendees whose behavior does not align with these values.
