SKATING ETIQUETTE for FREESTYLE SESSIONS

Checking in at Office Window – Prior to taking the ice skaters must sign in and pay. Skaters must enter and exit the ice promptly for their session(s).

Respect Right of Way – First priority is to be given to skaters practicing programs. Students in private lessons have second priority. All other skaters please refrain from skating through the path of programs and lessons.

Be Resourceful – Use your ice session wisely by skating during your session and not standing around or talking. This also presents a hazard to other skaters.

Make Way for the Lutz – Skating jumps are frequently performed in the corners of the rink therefore, please try to avoid long term practice in the corners.

Courtesy and Safety – Always be aware of your surroundings. Being courteous and respecting the “Right of Way” will help to insure a safe and happy freestyle session for all skaters.
