This past weekend, 18 skaters from our club attended the regional competition in Maidstone. It was a fantastic weekend! Our skaters did great, participating in individual events, team events and our pre-star Synchro team competed for the first time.

“We are looking forward to our annual carnival, Skatetacular 2018, taking place at the West Central Events Centre this Sunday at 2 p.m.,” she said. “It’s always a fun event for our skaters as they get to show off all their hard work to family, friends and members of our community.”
