The Boldt Company and sub-contractors began the project on January 29, 2018. The was completed on January 2, 2019.

This project was made possible by more than 125 alumni, parents, and friends who committed $4.5 million in capital gifts and pledges in support of the project, in addition to $1.5 million in capital expenditures from the college. St. Olaf will continue to fundraise for the $8 million arena as part of its $200 million For the Hill and Beyond comprehensive campaign.

The ice arena is located inside Skoglund Fieldhouse - directly accessible from both Skoglund and Tostrud Center main entrances. The updated design includes an NHL-size rink, stadium seats for 804 fans, locker rooms for varsity hockey, and other ice-related program spaces. New locker rooms were also be built for St. Olaf's varsity baseball, softball, volleyball, and men's and women's soccer programs. Courts inside Tostrud Center were resurfaced to accommodate St. Olaf's varsity tennis teams who had used Skoglund Fieldhouse as an indoor practice venue. More details can be found at ice.stolaf.edu.

The arena builds on other facility updates recently supported by donors including Holland Hall, Klein Field at Manitou, Tom Porter Hall, and a new golf training facility.
