During twelve months of planning that preceded 30 months of construction on the Airedale Arena, school officials visited 42 different basketball facilities to gather ideas on the proposed arena. After careful evaluation of these facilities, a flooring test in a local elementary school and consideration of recommendations from the architect, school officials chose nora® flooring for the 1/8-mile concourse behind the seating area, the promenade that leads visitors past the trophy case, school store and concession areas and the arena seating area. The enhanced durability and comfort that students and fans experience is exactly the winning combination that school administrators strived for when they chose the rubber floor covering.
