Sartell Warming House

A ribbon cutting ceremony took place at the new larger Sartell warming house at the Val Smith Park. The Sartell skaters will have more room to warm-up while at the ice rink. The Central Minnesota Builders Association (CMBA), a group of builders, building material suppliers and building service suppliers donated time and material to make this a reality for the City of Sartell.

This warming house was built in memory of Geoff Sagen, Tri-Mor Homes, Inc. who started the project. Geoff passed away on January 18, 2003. The 20 x 20 foot building was completed after Sartell presented a need to the CMBA. The Sartell Mayor, Sartell Parks Department Representative and the building project leader along with other interested individuals were present at the ribbon cutting.

The CMBA recognizes that more can be accomplished by using all of its resources and collaborating on projects that have already been identified as having value to the community. The CMBA has been actively improving our communities through involvement with the parks and recreation departments for over 30 years.
