Primary reason for closing:
"When Skate World's building owner died in 2013, the property was placed in probate."[4]
"The building and the business were put up for sale in April 2016 because the children of the original owners, who were the beneficiaries of the two trusts, had no interest in owning and operating it."[3]
"Debbie Berg, a longtime skating instructor at the rink, purchased the business in late 2016. On Friday, she said she had wanted to buy the building, but was unable to reach a deal with the owner, two Sacramento-based trusts."[3]
(As Debbie Berg owned the name & all the equipment, she went looking for a new building.)
