1. Registration: FOR PRIVATE ICE SKATERS (Not for Canskate)

Please make sure you register for the correct session. Skaters must be registered for sessions at their level only.

Missed sessions: Skaters may only skate on the days they are registered for. Skaters will not be allowed to make up sessions they have missed, due to sickness, vacations, inclement weather or conflicting events. Make up sessions can be purchased as a “buy on” for extra ice on session for which they are qualified (Jr/Sr, etc..) as long as the session is not full to capacity.

Stroking can only be done during the first 10 minutes of each session.

2. Skating Etiquette and Safety: FOR ALL SKATERS

No skater or parent of a skater should interrupt a Coach during another skaters private lesson or during the Canskate classes, unless it is an emergency. Please reserve all questions until after the session or for during your own session. Be thoughtful of other skaters, their lesson is being paid for.

For Canskaters: Please direct questions or comments about Canskate programming to the Dollard Figure Skating Club Board at contactus@cpadollard.com and the canskate director will answer any and all questions or concerns . For questions/comments regarding your child’s progress or instruction on the ice you can refer to the on-ice coordinator after the session. Please do not refer to the Program Assistants (Coaches Assistants).

Appropriate use of language and display of positive behavior is expected at all times. All skaters and parents are encouraged to use common courtesy, good manners and respect fellow skaters, Coaches, Executive Members, Parents and Civic Centre Staff. Any person not abiding by this rule will be asked to leave the area.

Skate guards must be worn on skates at all times when outside the rink enclosure (ALL SKATERS)

Priority or right of way must be yielded to a skater who’s music is being played, and all other skaters and Coaches are asked to be courteous.
