We are increasingly excited, as this year’s ice show grows nearer! This will be a wonderful opportunity for our club to display the hard work of our skaters! A day for everyone on the ice to shine like the stars and enjoy the talents of some award-winning skaters as well!
Each session our coaches are dedicating time to work on the ice show numbers so it is important for your skater to be at all practices. Please review all of the important dates and information below:
COSTUMES
- Several of our volunteers have been helping skater’s fit/label costumes and our seamstress will do basic alterations. If your child hasn’t been fitted yet, don’t panic, if you confirmed they wanted to participate, we tagged a costume with their name. Our volunteers have over 100 skaters to organize costumes for so please be patient and be sure to ask questions to our board members.
- There is no extra fee for costume rental this year.
- Each costume will be labelled with your skater’s name and remain at the arena at all times, skaters will not be wearing them home as they have been rented not purchased. Please only dry snacks and water while in costume!! No chocolate or sticky staining items!
- There are some items your skater will need to provide for costumes (i.e. black pants/beige tights etc.) – see handouts at tag table or refer to bulletin board at office.
- If your skater wears a helmet they will be required to wear it for the show as well. It will be removed for pictures. (Stage 5 and under must wear helmets on ice)
PHOTOS: Sunday March 8th-Please be ready in Costume 10mins before Picture time
- Tara King will be on site to take professional shots of our skaters for the program, which we sell, to help cover ice show costs. As well, you may purchase photos of your skater if you wish. Even if you don not plan to purchase pictures we would love for child to be in the group photo for the program. Forms will be available on picture day. Tara will accept cash, debit or credit.
