Dear Skaters & Parents/Guardians,

The Executive Board welcomes everyone to the Norwood & District Skating Club 2024/25 Season!

LET THE SKATING CONTINUE!!

Please come out for a Family Fun Skate on Wednesday, 27th November from 6pm to 7:20pm! This Fun Skate is not a coached session and does not have program assistance but rather an opportunity for our December Start skaters to warm up those skating legs, speak with members of our coaching staff and the executive board. It also is a time for families to enjoy some ice time together!

To participate on the ice on any other date as a parent volunteer for your child, you must speak with a coach or executive member. Parent volunteers must be registered with Skate Canada and pay the non-refundable fee of $61.70. The Skate Canada fee covers insurance for the program.

The Junior and Intermediate CanSkate December Start season officially begins on Monday 2nd December and Wednesday 4th December. Our Junior CanSkate (PreCanSkate to Stage 1) session is for 30 minutes from 6pm, and our Intermediate CanSkate (CanSkate Stage 2-4) session begins at 6:30pm for 50 minutes.

Here are a few reminders -

We are a Scent Free environment
As per our helmet policy, all skaters up to CanSkate Stage 6 must wear a helmet
All skaters must wear mittens or gloves
Please have skaters dress warmly and in comfortable clothing that allows for movement
All CanSkate skaters will pick up their name badges at the Welcome Table. The Welcome Table will be located near Dressing Rooms 1 and 2.
Name badges are to be returned after each session to the Welcome Table

We look forward to a fun and enjoyable season of skating!

Kind regards,
Executive Board Members
