A state-owned rink run by FMC since 2007

Cronin Memorial Skating Arena is a state rink. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts owns it as one of its public ice skating facilities, and the Department of Conservation and Recreation oversees it. Day-to-day operation has been contracted to FMC Ice Sports since 2007. The building was rededicated in March 2008, a year into FMC's tenure, with the Governor on hand for the ceremony.

Today the sheet is shared by a long list of hockey and skating tenants. The NEFS North Shore Stingrays, the Greater Boston Vipers, StinkySocks Hockey and Pro Ambitions Hockey all call Cronin home, alongside FMC's own learn-to-skate, youth hockey, figure skating, club ice and adult programs.

The rink also opens its ice for one-off community nights. In February 2018 it held a Paint and Skate Night, when local children, among them eight-year-old Nathan Trent of Revere, painted cartoon characters directly onto the ice surface.
