Congratulations to the club’s skaters who competed recently in the Solo Dance Series and Pair Challenger Series.

Solo Dance Series

Pair Challenger Series

Renewals for 2024- 2025 due NOW!

On June 1, US Figure Skating opens registration for the new season that will start on July 1, 2024.  US Figure Skating will send confirmation of your renewal after June 1.

If you plan on competing or testing on or after July 1, please complete your registration as soon as possible.  EMS registrations for the Non-Qualifying Series are open, but the registrations are not complete until you have renewed your US Figure Skating membership through your club.

For the 24-25 season, US Figure Skating has increased the amount that the clubs pay per member.  At least 65% of each club membership fee goes to US Figure Skating, so we have increased our membership fees to cover the new costs.  For some levels, such as the Parent Membership, the US Figure Skating cost is equal to our fee.

We hope that you have a good 24-25 season on and off the ice.

Information about the various membership categories can be found below.

Slides from a recent presentation hosted by the club can be found here.  A replay of the presentation is available on YouTube here.

We have had several requests for where or how to find the test requirements that go into effect on Nov. 1st. This information is found in the rulebook beginning with Rule 4200. However, to make it easier for everyone, our test chair has copied out the information from the rulebook and it is available below so our skaters and coaches may download it or print it out more easily.  Most programs that skaters are currently doing will still work for the new requirements but there have been some changes and you will want to check the requirements to be sure you are in compliance. (For instance, the Pre-Preliminary FS test currently requires one spin, but it will require the skaters to do 2 spins beginning Nov. 1st).
