Roller skating is returning to Galesburg. Whether it's just a one-day event or a more permanent entertainment option remains to be seen. A day of family and adult fun is set for Saturday, Oct. 22 at the former Skate Palace, 1855 E. Knox St. in Galesburg. The event, sponsored by Michael Spinks and not-for-profit All-Stars Sports Academy, will feature roller skating for all ages from 1 to 8 p.m. There also will be other games and contests, a pitching speed radar gun, and food trucks on site. A suggested donation of $5 includes the rental of skates. An adult skate for ages 21 and over featuring DJs will be held from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Oct. 22 at the Skate Palace. The skating event requires pre-registration. Email allstarssportsacademy@gmail.com or visit the event registration page. Spinks will rent the facility for the skating event. He said he would like to eventually purchase the 12,000-square-foot Skate Palace building and the six acres of land it sits on. Skate Palace closed i
