drive around and find ice arenas, if your lucky you might be able to jack some of the material they use for the boards

like the plexi glass shit they use at the top of the boards right, not the actualy boards that start at the ice and go to the plexi glass, gotcha

We ordered oursfor the MMPARK boxes (Lexan plastic) from a Signs Now place, like a sign/billboard place.
It was a decent price but shipping is expensive, Last year we ordered over 24 sheets of the stuff for the wallride and boxes and ordered another 12 for this season.
All times are Eastern (-5)
