Our Club will be hosting an Ice Dance Simulation this Saturday, November 28 beginning at 9:00 am and ending at approximately 10:15 am.

As many of you know, this  “Simulation” is an opportunity for many of our National Team Ice Dance pairs to perform their competition programs in front of an audience. It is a great opportunity to get an up close view of the performances by pairs who are are competing nationally and internationally.

Scheduled off ice and on-ice sessions will run as scheduled and will be suspended during the simulation. All Ice Only skaters (Junior, Intermediate and Senior) will be able to skate following the simulation until 11am when StarSkate lessons begin.
