The cast of the 1947 Ice Capers show at the Lakewood Ice Arena pause for a photo on ice. The arena was home to many top level skaters when it opened in the 1930s. By 1955 the show had eight performances and 175 skaters. The rink hosted numerous shows and was the entertainment hub for Tacoma residents until 1982 when part of the building collapsed and the rest was demolished. Donor Nancy Roberts is 2nd to the right of Donald Duck costumed skater, standing sideways.
