Six of us met at the Henry VIII Ale House on Thursday November 5th night to plan our 2009 – 2010 season.
We will continue to skate at the Martin Grove rink on Tuesdays and Thursdays, starting Tuesday December 8th. The group decided to freeze the membership and skate rental fees at last season’s amounts.
Thank you to Jim who offered to help look after Tuesday nights. Jay is only skating Thursdays this season.
We spent some time talking about how to get the word out about our club. Mike agreed to set up a Facebook group while Jim is establishing a LinkedIn group. If you belong to these social networking sites, then join the Etobicoke Speed Skating groups.
Neil suggested we should organize one or more skating road trips this winter. Several of us are interested in a day trip to check out the Lakefield oval. Other possible destinations could include the Portland Marathon, the Bytown Ice Marathon at the Brewer Lake Oval in Ottawa, or going at a more relaxed pace on the Rideau Canal in Ottawa. We will talk about these at the rink and let everyone know once a date and destination is locked in.
