-We’re going to let you in on a little secret-
The first time your child skates—he or she will fall. The best part, your child will get right back up. Anything’s possible when your child skates for the first time. So prepare yourself and your child for the expected and unexpected. This page is to give you and your skater the needed information to make this skate season super successful and stress free.

-On Your/Your Skaters First Day-
*Be on time & Follow These Steps To Make Group Classes Easy
1. Arrive a good 20 minutes before class kicks off. We operate out of the Snow King Event & Sports Center.
2. Check in with Sandy Sandberg at the registration desk.
3. Your skater will receive a name tag and on the name tag you will see a color this color will be "their group level/name"
4. Lace up skates. Skates can be rented from the rink but rentals are not included in the group lesson pricing. Remember to only allow your skaters to walk on protective surfaces, NEVER WALK ON CONCRETE with skates (unless the blades have hard guards). Used Skates can be purchased from the Clubs Skate Swap, or we are happy to guide you in the process of buying a new pair.
5. Students will meet off ice at 4:15pm with their instructor - look for the matching color on the name tag to coaches binders. Skaters will meet off-ice for the first few classes. Snowplow Sam Class will always meet and do their "warm-up" off-ice at 4:15pm-4:30pm. Coaches will go over class procedures and new skater introductions. This is also good time to meet and become acquainted with your new instructor and ask any questions you may have.
The People you will meet: Sandy Sandberg our program coordinator. Lacey Merrell our Skating Director & your group skating Instructor / assistant coach.

FAQ:
*What Level Do I Sign My Skater Up For? If your skater is ages 3-5 during enrollment you will register them in the Snowplow Sam Class, even if the skater was in Snowplow Sam before (Snowplow Sam testing goes to Snowplow level 4). If Skaters is ages 6 & up at the time of enrollment you will register them for Basic 1. *My Skater Hasn't Taken Group Classes But Has Skated Before.. We are excited they've been on the ice but, they will need to start in the levels mentioned above. If they are ready we will move them up to the next level, we will not hold your skaters back! Remember it's much easier to move up in levels rather than down. *Yes To Helmets and Head Protection: All SNOWPLOW SAM SKATERS, ages 3-6, must wear a helmet. Nothing is to be worn underneath the helmet for proper fitting. Any new skaters to Learn to Skate USA are also encouraged to wear a hat or bring and wear a helmet for the first few class until a comfortable balance is established. We recommend CSA helmets! *Yes Bring lots of layers. Comfort and moving freely about are essential for new skaters. Choose sweatpants or warm-up pants instead of bulkier snow pants. Bring a jacket too, since indoor rinks do set thermostats at a brisk 50 degrees Fahrenheit. No heavy ski clothes as they prohibit movement and bending. *What Socks Do I Put My Skater In? Thin over thick. Bulkier, thicker socks limit support and movement and create unwanted bumps inside the boots. Go with lightweight socks or thinner tights. *What Kind Of Gloves? Gloves are preferable to mittens as they provide articulation. Either way, mittens or gloves are suitable. *Who Is My Skaters Group Instructor First know what group your skater is in (what color is on the name tag) then please visit the SCJH Instructors page or click HERE. *What Will My Skater Be Working On? SCJH follows the Learn To Skate USA curriculum. Below are the links. |
