The Denison City Council will meet Monday night to consider a contract for a new company to put on the city's Denison on Ice event.

The deal with RE Crown Rinks, LLC would be a three-year contract and cost around $99,500.

The new ice rink would be 45% larger than the last three years, with a capacity of 140 guests. The previous rink had a capacity of 95 guests.

If approved, construction would begin November 1 and open to the public November 29 through January 5.

This is the fourth year the city will offer the event.

A new feature this season will be Denison on Ice's Olaf. The mascot will be available for pictures and guest interactions during the rink's operational hours.

Choctaw tribal member Jason Thomas is proof that second chances do exist. Life hasn't always been the easiest for him, and he is the first to admit he's made mistakes in his past. Due to a rough start in life and bad decisions, Thomas found himself incarcerated. He finally decided that he needed to change his life to save it. Thomas used tribal resources to get a job at the Choctaw Nation Recycling Center in Durant, where he has been given a second chance at life. "Don't let your past decide your future.
