OUR SEASON RUNS FROM SEPTEMBER 2nd TO MARCH 31st, 2026

We skate to learn, we skate for fun & we skate to compete, both at a Regional and Provincial Level.

It is hard to believe that the first half of our season is at an end and we are about to start our Christmas break. At the end of the skate tonight, our Tuesday skaters will be off the ice until Tuesday, January 6th, 2026.

Our Saturday skaters are back on the ice on Saturday, January 3rd, 2026.

The first half of the season was a good one. We had skaters on the podium at both the Gloucester and Belleville meets, we had new faces out on the ice each and every week, and spent time with parents at a successful Boston Pizza fundraiser while the skaters served us!

The second half of our season holds promise. We will have some more new faces joining us on the ice and we have the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano-Cortina to look forward to in February 2026.

However you spend the Christmas and New Year holiday, I hope it is enjoyable. And if you are traveling this holiday season, I hope you get to and from your destination safely.

President
