Vacationland Figure Skating Club

 We need volunteers for test session on August 8th 2010.  This is a great opportunity to learn and observe what a test session is all about.  Positions that are needed include runners, registration, ice monitors, hospitality and test chair assistant.  Also needed are home made food items for the judges and volunteers.  Some soup, sandwiches, salads and deserts.  Please contact Toni Renford if you are able to help!

The Vacationland Figure Skating Club is located in the heart of the Vacationland with skaters from all the surrounding communities including: Aitkin, Backus, Baxter, Brainerd, Breezy Point, Crosslake, Crosby, Deerwood, Fort Ripley, Ironton, Longville, Merrifield, Pequot Lakes, Pillager and Pine River. We utilize the ice at  the Brainerd Area Civic Center.

The Vacationland FSC is a member of the U.S. Figure Skating  and offers the US Figure Skating Skate With U.S. Basic Skills Skating Program to teach ice skating skills to children age 5 thru 18. These skills can be used to advance in either Figure Skating or Hockey.

The Snow Plow Sam program is designed to teach skating skills to the pre-school age children . The Vacationland FSC also has a Junior Club and Senior Club program which offers private lessons in Moves in the Field, Freestyle, and Dance.

New on the website will be our "Help Wanted" section.  We are looking for parents that would like to become more involved.  This might include running for the Board, joining one of the many VFSC committees or even chairing a committee or event.  If you are interested but don't feel confident you can "shadow" an existing chair or committee member and learn the ropes first.

Perhaps you have a particular issue or aspect of the club that is of interest.  Maybe you just want to learn more.  Some committees are very active year around while others are once a year, whatever your preference we have a place for you!!

Please check the "Help Wanted" section often for available positions and opportunities within our club!

The 2010 VFSC Summer camp has drawn to a close.  The skaters are tired, sore and nursing blisters.  The coaches report aching feet, low back pain and minor headaches.  All agree however it was the best camp ever!  A huge THANK YOU to Clafton Skate for bringing the gear to US!!  That's right, skates in every size, dresses, all right in our parking lot.   Click here to go to their website.  If you miss all the fun already visit the photo gallery.  YOU might be in one of the pictures!
