Two NHL-size sheets opened in 1998, Lindenwood University’s arena from 2004 and city-owned since 2019.
Wentzville Ice Arena opened to the public on December 18, 1998. Wayne Stumpf developed and originally owned the 67,800-square-foot complex, which cost $4.5 million to build. Naming rights later made it the CenturyTel Ice Arena from 2003 to 2004, and after Lindenwood University bought it in July 2004 it was the Lindenwood Ice Arena until 2019.
The building has two NHL-size sheets used for hockey, figure skating and open skating, with heated bleacher seating and room for about 750 spectators at each rink. The Wentzville Indians have been tenants since 1998, and local high school hockey plays here.
Lindenwood’s Lions and Lady Lions played here from 2004 until fall 2019, when they moved to the new Centene Community Ice Center. The City of Wentzville bought the facility in June 2019 for $2 million, with Lindenwood financing the purchase interest-free for 20 years, and restored the original Wentzville Ice Arena name.
