  • The skater will have the opportunity to compete in local and national figure skating competitions.
  • The skater will have access to the Club locker room and may request a locker (assigned by skater seniority).
  • The skater can participate in our annual Ice Show.

  • Member families and skaters will be required to fundraise beginning with the second year of membership.
