The rink’s hours are geared to schoolkids.

he was hot,” said Messier, who’s been skating at the rink since she was 12. “Everybody wanted the D J but I was the one who scored.”

Rap star Vanilla Ice, pop diva Trinere and Luther Campbell of the raunchy hip-hop group 2 Live Crew all performed in concert at Atlantis.

In 1996, Kelly Brown of Lake Worth remembers teaching her daughter, Lucy, then 4, to skate.

“I was still young and fit enough to skate at the time,” Brown said.

Wellington’s Jenni- fer Martinez said Atlantis was the first place she was allowed to go without her parents.

“Even today, if I hear a song from Stevie B or TKA, I think, ‘speed skaters and speed skaters only,’” Martinez said. “I have such great memories of skating with my friends.”

But not all the memories are happy ones.

Sarah Mulé, a former Greenacres resident, was about 5 or 6 when a skater bumped Mulé’s mom, who was pulling her across the floor, causing Mulé to fall. She got a concussion. “Those floors were hard,” said Mulé, who now lives in Pennsylvania. “But that didn’t scare me away. I had a roller skating birthday part y almost every year growing up. I can’t listen to C+C Music Factory without picturing those brown rental skates.”

Speaking of brown skates, Murphy said the rink has 800 pairs, with 14 being the largest size.

Although Atlantis still resembles a ’70s hot spot, it has been upgraded with a new roof, painting, updated lighting and its annual floor resurfacing.

A few flat- screen TVs could pop up during the summer. But don’t expect a massive makeover. That’s not, after all, what Atlantis customers want.

“People come here to reminisce,” Murphy said. It’s very familiar to them. We’ll try to keep it going as long as we can.”
