Terry and Kim Pegula finally got to see the “centerpiece” of their transformational gift on Friday October 11.

After a conscious decision to stay away from the construction site for the building that bears their name for almost a year, I had the honor of escorting Terry and Kim on their first “official” tour of the Pegula Ice Arena (PIA).

The tour began at 9:00 a.m. on the morning of the building dedication and “Grand Opening” that included the home opener for the Men’s hockey team that evening against Army. The game was televised nationally on the Big Ten Network.
