Roller Hutt Skate Center, Garrettsville

The building that houses Roller Hutt was built in 1948, and by the time it passed into owner Craig Dlugokecki's hands, he knew he had to work on bringing the facility into the 20th century. With a new vision for making his roller skating rink more fun, he made plenty of improvements: skaters now have a choice between renting regular or inline skates and large screens on the perimeter now play popular music videos. Between laps on the resurfaced floor, skaters can mix things up with an eight-minute laser tag game. Set inside an inflatable maze-like arena, players take their best shots amid fog and dramatic lighting. When it's time to take a break form the activities, the snack bar comes to the rescue with, among other things, Hershey's hand-dipped ice cream.
