“Wee” Blades Learn to Skate program runs Tuesday nights from 5:30-6PM.  We still have spots available – please spread the word.  Best coach:skater ratio in the city!  Currently 3:1 and capped at 5:1, and that is on our big international ice surface rink.  I particularly liked the tunnels that the coaches made out of the mats for the wee ones to skate through!  What could be better: fort building and skating!

Thanks to the dots crew for their many hours of work on the ice setting up our track reference points.  Specific thanks to Graham, Steve and Kelly!
