Printz Roller Way, 7006 Governor Printz Blvd., Holly Oak / Wilmington, Delaware

Printz Roller Way opened in 1938
by Phillip & Florence Vaccarini.

Printz Roller Way now leased by Victor & Dorothy Caille,
but still owned by Phillip & Florence Vaccarini.

Seems like someone is always looking for
a reason to demolish a rink.

Under new management,
but sadly not for long.
