Skate World doesn't look, or smell, any different than when I went there in middle school in the early 80's. It's a classic!

Caption: Just because Josh Quint, 14, right, broke his arm skating, doesn't mean he didn't take advantage of the busiest day of year during President's Day All Day Skate at Skate World in Springfield, Monday, Feb. 19, 2007, with his friends Nikole Wright, 15, and Jacque Tena, 17, left. Quint goes skating up to three times a week and was waiting for a possible "speed skate," which he heard probably wasn't going to happen because of the smaller children in attendance.
