Skating starts next Tuesday December 7th

The Etobicoke Speed Skating Club will be back on the ice in a week’s time. Our season starts on Tuesday December 7^th, 2010 and finishes on Thursday February 24^th, 2011. We continue to skate at Martingrove Rink two nights per week. On Tuesday evenings the ice is ours from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and on Thursday evenings from 7:15 p.m. to 8:15 p.m.

I will be at the rink Saturday December 4^th, 2010 from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. to receive memberships and to hand out rental skates. Those skaters who were fitted last year are advised to be there early, as we cannot guarantee to hold skates after the Club opens. If you are unable to register on December 4^th, please arrive at the rink by 7:00 p.m. on December 7^th, 2010 so that we can all get on the ice at 7:30 p.m.

Membership for the 2010 – 2011 season will be $125.00 for adults and $60.00 for children and youth under 18. Skate rental costs an additional $25.00 for the season.

This year we have secured additional ice time at Sunnydale Acres on Sunday from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. and at Prince of Wales on Monday from 8:45 to 10:00 p.m. – that gives you 4 1/4 hours of skating per week on a total of 48 days!

P.S. The Sunnydale Acres Rink is already open. Jim Charbonneau will be skating tomorrow between 10:00 and 11:00 a.m. and would be happy to have others join him.
