The Wawa Figure Skating Club is gearing up for the 2017-2018 skating season and we can\u2019t\u00a0wait to see what our skaters will achieve this season!<\/p>\n
Last year the club ran several different programs and trained skaters of many ages and abilities.\u00a0From CanSkate, which is Skate Canada\u2019s \u201clearn to skate program\u201d, all the way up to StarSkate\u00a0which develops skating skills, ice dance, free skate and interpretive skating.<\/p>\n
Last season our skaters attended competitions and seminars including two seminars that were\u00a0hosted by our club here in Wawa. Our skaters also got to take part in some fun club events like\u00a0the Halloween Bring a Friend and our Santa Skate before Christmas. StarSkaters travelled to\u00a0Thunder Bay, Sault Ste Marie and Manitoulin Island for skating competitions. Our skaters\u00a0showcased their talent and the skills learned over the year at our year end gala at which many\u00a0skaters received special awards for their hard work.<\/p>\n
The WFSC introduced two new programs last season that will be offered again this year. Come\u00a0Skate With Me and PreStar. Come Skate With me gives pre-school first time skaters and a\u00a0parent the chance to get on the ice together. Having a parent there to help their child as they\u00a0learn to skate really helps to encourage children to feel comfortable on the ice. PreStar is a\u00a0great transition program for our skaters who are ready to advance from CanSkate to StarSkate.<\/p>\n
PreStar offers group lessons during StarSkate ice to build up the faster paced skating required\u00a0for StarSkate. All of our programs encourage progression with regular evaluations and rewards.<\/p>\n
Our registration night is set for September 6th at the MMCC at 6:00pm. Check out our\u00a0Facebook page for info or to see what we\u2019ve been up to this year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
