Owners Diane and Peter Martin plan to reopen the building as a pet resort at least a few weeks later.

Peter Martin said he still loves roller skating, but that it's becoming less popular, especially in New England.

So instead of investing more of their money for their roller rink business, they sought other uses for their building, Martin said.

He said a growing number of pet owners are looking for high-quality places to board their animals, and the rink's location near ski areas, Dartmouth College and the highway make it a prime spot.

Before Great View closes, the owners plan to host several events, including dances, private functions and fundraisers. It will also be open for roller skating.
