Rollerama closing down for the summer
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) — After another successful nine months of roller skating, Rollerama is closing for the summer. 'It's kind of an honor, to be honest with you. There's not too many places that survived that long It's been a long history, family owned and operated. They built it back in 1966. It's been running ever since,' said Karen Thompson, the manager of the Rollerama Rollerama has been open for quite some time, but how have they been able to stay open for so long? The manager of Rollerama said it's because of the atmosphere. 'I think it's just, it's a fun place for kids to go, and we hold people to a standard around here. There's rules that you abide by, and if you don't abide by those rules, then we let you know it's time to leave,' Thompson expressed. 'I've had generations of people come back and appreciate that fact. I've had even regular skaters that I see every week down here.'

'Quite honestly, [in] this business, the colder it is outside, the better we do,' Thompson explained. 'Once it gets to about mid-April, if we slow down significantly. There's too many other free things to do in town as far as, you know, baseball, soccer, going to the swimming pool, traveling with your family during the summertime.' During the pandemic, Thompson said it was a hard time for their staff and put a dent in their business, until ultimately deciding to close. 'Because of the different regulations they had going on one week, we had to follow one set of rules. The next week they changed their mind, and we'd have follow another set of rules. It just didn't make sense for us to be open,' she recalled. Those days are in the past, though, she said: 'The word is getting out again that, 'Hey, it's fun at Rollerama.' Some of the schools are coming back and doing private parties. School parties, which that's always a benefit to us. It kind of feeds the next generation of skaters and get them into the building. They have fun. They want to come back again.' Boyden-Hull School District sends off three, retiring teachers with celebration Thompson expressed why Rollerama is so special to her. 'It's really rewarding to hear those people that were part of that come back in here and talk about their fond memories of Rollerama, and tell us that they're bringing their grandkids here now and all that.' Rollerama will be closing for their season on May 17, but they'll be back open after Labor Day for their 60th season. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Three members of Sam Thompson's family snub new girlfriend Samie Elishi amid ‘tensions'
THREE members of Sam Thompson's family have snubbed his new girlfriend Samie Elishi amid apparent growing 'tensions.' The former I'm A Celebrity winner had been getting closer to the former Love Island star in recent weeks. 7 7 7 7 Over the weekend the loved-up pair were seen to be enjoying each other's company at Olivia Attwood 's birthday bash. During the party, the pair were spotted hand in hand as they danced together on Gabby Allen's story. Later, they were spotted sharing a steamy smooch in public together before making their way home. They were both beaming after the exclusive festivities as they walked down the street arm in arm. However, it seems there may be growing tensions behind the scenes as three members of Sam's inner circle have seemingly snubbed the star. The former Made In Chelsea star is known to share a very close bond with his sister Louise, 35, and her fiancé Ryan Libbey, 34. They even live next door to each other and the siblings regularly appear in each other's social media videos. Their mum Karen Thompson regularly posts images with her family as well as Sam's BFF, Pete Wicks. However, in an apparent snub, Louise, Ryan and Karen have not yet clicked the follow button on Samie's Instagram profile. Samie, 25, is also not following any of the trio in return despite her follower status for her new love. Loved up Sam Thompson and Samie Elishi seen holding hands in cute moment as they dance at party together It's somewhat ironic as we first revealed their romance, after Sam and Samie first swapped flirty messages after following each other on the platform. This comes as Sam squirmed when he was questioned on his new romance and was slammed as being 'defensive'. Pete Wicks, 37, was not afraid to stir the pot on the latest episode of their Staying Relevant podcast as Sam was left stuttering and lost for words. Giving their take on the party in their podcast which was recorded before the bash happened, Sam joked: "We are actually dating, but not each other." Timeline of Louis Tomlinson's love life Here we delve into Louis' love life since his rise to fame in One Direction. Hannah Walker - Louis' first girlfriend, who he dated in 2010. They split in 2011 as his band One Direction took off and the long distance romance was too much for them. Eleanor Calder - The pair dated on and off from 2011 to 2022. They were first photographed kissing at the London Olympic Games in 2012. Briana Jungwirth - Louis dated American Briana in 2015 and they have a son named Freddie, who was born in 2016. Sofie Nyvang - Louis was rumoured to be in a relationship with Danish model Sofie in February 2023. They split two months later in April 2023. Later, Pete said: "Now you've got a date for the night," which prompted Sam to clap back: "I don't have a f**king date for the night." The former TOWIE star interjected as he exclaimed: "Me," as Sam, clearly still on the back foot, said: "Right." Pete, then pressing the issue, quizzed: "Who did you think I meant?" to which Sam said: "No one." Pete, who had discussed how he organised Liv's event, then probed: "Why so defensive then? I was just talking about me." The Sun was first to report how I'm a Celeb winner Sam was moving on from his ex Zara McDermott, 28, after growing close to Samie. The documentary presenter in return has also found love again after her split, after she was spotted with former One Direction star Louis Tomlinson. 7 7
