Learn to Skate
We have two programs to offer beginning (1st Year) skaters, Learn to Skate and Intro to Hockey. Both programs are FREE.
Learn to Skate
What is Learn to Skate?
Our Learn to Skate program consists of four sessions where we will teach your kids the basics and give them a feel for the ice.
The program includes on-ice instruction for Girls and Boys ages 4* to 12, beginning with basic skating and continuing with the introduction of hockey equipment. All necessary equipment is provided, INCLUDING SKATES.
*Must be age 4 by January 1st, no exceptions!

Skaters please arrive 60 - 65 mins early for equipment fitting the first night.
Volunteer Requirements?
There are no volunteering requirements associated with the Learn to Skate program!!! This program is meant to allow beginning skaters to get a taste of skating hockey style with NO strings attached. There are NO required commitments if you sign up for Learn to Skate. This is your chance to see if hockey is right for your child.
Hopefully your child has a blast and upon completion of Learn to Skate, you'll register for the Intro to Hockey program!
