SOUTH BRUNSWICK, NJ — The Kendall Park Roller Rink will close its doors this Sunday, Nov. 26, MyCentralJersey is reporting.
The South Brunswick Township institution will close this weekend after more than 50 years in business. It's located on Rt. 27 in the Kendall Park section of the Township. It's owned by Cliff Nazzaro, 76, who is originally from North Brunswick but now lives in Las Vegas.

"There's people all over the country that know this rink is closing," Jim Kennedy, 69, of Monmouth Junciton told MyCentralJersey. Kennedy teaches people how to roller skate at the rink. "This is a pretty famous rink around the country."
