History
Shortly after opening in 1939, the ice hockey team from Lehigh University in nearby Bethlehem was granted permission to use the facility as a home venue. The team would use the rink as its home for the next 64 years.[2] Two years later, the Penguin Figure Skating Club was formed used the rink to showcase regional athletes.[3] The rink remained in active use for 65 years and served as a hub for ice skating activities in the area.
By the beginning of the 21st century, the rink was showing its age and a much more modern rink was built in Bethlehem in 2003.[4] The following year, with most events having been transferred to the Steel Ice Center, the Albeth Ice Palace held one final public skate in April before closing for good.
