PFSC Membership Benefits

CONTRACT ICE

Both beginning and experienced skaters need time to practice. PFSC  in coordination with SQSA buys prime-time ice so members don't have to be at the rink early in the morning or late at night. Our contracts run from September through late -April so our skaters never have to worry about being out in the cold during hockey season when many figure skaters have a hard time finding ice!   Our ice times are usually at 4:15, 5:30 and 6:45 pm Monday thru Thursday, at 4:15 and 5:30 pm on Fridays and at 9:45 am and 11:00 on Saturdays.  The 6:45pm session on Monday and Tuesdays is reserved for our two oldest synchronized skating teams.  The 4:15pm sessions on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday is reserved for higher test level skaters (FS4 and above).  From mid November to mid  February all the weekday ice times  start half hour later.   Go to Quick Link to Forms to download the SQSA and the PFSC contracts as well as the Ice Calendar for 2007-2008.

During May a mini May ice contract is offered by SQSA usually beginning right after the ice show until mid May when Parade  usually closes for 2 to 3 weeks for maintenance.  In the summer time we work with SQSA to offer SummerQuest, which offers a complete training program from  early June thru  late August, with daily ice usually running from 9am to 3pm and a series of both on and off ice group classes.

LOCKERS

Want your own personal space at the rink? All lockers at Parade Ice Garden are reserved for PFSC members only and are available on a first come/first served basis.

Lockers for the 2007/2008 season are at no charge to members.  For more information, email Xtreasurer@paradefsc.org.    (please copy and paste this email to your email program and then remove the leading X--this is in an attempt to cut down on incoming spam)

SYNCHRONIZED SKATING TEAMS

PFSC offers four synchronized skating  teams. The lines compete in ISI and  in the future may compete in USFSA events. These teams are identified by their ISI/USFSA competitive divisions. There is a high school ''teen'' age team (with practices each Monday evening), a middle school age team (with practices each Tuesday evening), and an elementary school age team (practices Sunday afternoon).  Additionally we offer the Introduction to Synchro Penguins line which skates in the Studio Rink  for a 9 session season in the fall and a 9 session season in the spring. For information, send an email.

CLUB WARM-UP JACKETS

Club warm-ups  jackets are a great way to let skaters from other rinks know where you're from and they make it easy for skaters to find their teammates (and coaches to find their skaters) at competitions. Jackets for older skaters are made by LuluLemon in Canada and for younger skaters are a Mondor polar fleece jacket, with the SQSA PARADE embroidered on the back and the skaters name embroidered on the sleeve.   Contact web@paradefsc.org  for more information
