March “Learn to Speedskate” Clinics – Update

March 9, 2010 @ 1:20 PM

We have had such great response to our March 14 and March 21 “Learn to Speedskate” clinics and the March 14 clinic is now completely full. In order to provide sufficient coaching and have skates for everyone to try, we must limit the number of skaters.

As a reminder, here is the basic information about the March 14 clinic (if you have sent us an email and are confirmed on the list):

The clinic will take place on Sunday, March 14 from, 9:30-11:30am at the Mountain View Ice Arena at 14313 SE Mill Plain Blvd. in Vancouver.

PLEASE NOTE THAT MARCH 14 IS THE FIRST DAY OF DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME – SO MOVE YOUR CLOCKS AHEAD ON SATURDAY, MARCH 13TH.

Cost for each clinic is $10 per person including speedskate rental (we have a lmiited inventory).
Rental skates are available from the rink (hockey and figure skates) for an additional small fee.

NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN THE RINK’S PARKING LOT – WE HAVE BEEN REQUESTED BY THE RINK TO PARK IN THE STRIP MALL PARKING LOT on the east side of the rink in the center rows of parking in front of the
Rib City Grill. (The parking in front of the rink is reserved for Church parking on Sundays and
they occasionally tow cars.)

Plan to wear long pants or tights, long sleeves (fleece is good) and gloves, and a helmet (bike
helmets are fine) and kneepads if you have them. We do have a few extra helmets if you need to borrow one.
