Ben Boeke Ice Rink

Ben Boeke Ice Rink (often shortened to “The Ben,” "Boeke" or "BB1/BB2") is an ice hockey arena in Anchorage, Alaska that opened in 1974. It is named after former Anchorage city clerk Benjamin W. Boeke, who served from 1947 to 1967, under 11 mayors and 8 city managers. The arena is owned by the Municipality of Anchorage and operated by O'Malley Ice & Sports, who operates Sullivan Arena.

In 2021, due to Sullivan Arena being used as a homeless shelter, the Anchorage Wolverines of the NAHL would use it as their temporary home with plans to move into Sullivan Arena as soon as possible.
