Greetings! 
Only just over a week now until the Ice Dogs invitational, this is definitely a date for your diary as we have over 70 teams taking part with appearances from Bobby Hull and the Blackhwks mascot Tommy Hawk.
The week after that sees the annual performance of the Skating academy's end of season ice show. This promises to be the best ever and takes place on Saturday 7th June at 2:30 and 7:30. Some tickets are still available.
We wish you a happy Memorial day weekend and hope that you can join us for the fun of the forthcoming weekends.
Happy skating,
Chris

Erica Gold for Erica at Adult Nationals
Erica Kaplinski won the gold medal at the recent US Adult National Championships in Lake Placid NY.
Her interpretation to a Russian Gypsies dance captured the imagination of the judges to win gold in the Light Entertainment / Comedy section.
Another one of our local skaters to win gold was Cindy Crouse, she won in the ladies freeskate event.
Congratulations to both of them from all of us at the Glacier.

 
Bobby Hull
Bobby Hull is guest of honor at the Ice Dogs Invitational
Over 70 teams now participating in the Ice Dogs Invitational from 28th may until 1st June. This is without doubt one of the biggest events at the Glacier to date with Blackhawks legend Bobby Hull attending over the weekend along with the Blackhawks mascot TOMMY HAWK, who will be here during the day on Saturday.

Jaymes
Jaymes to join Disney on Ice
Local skater, Jaymes Schneider has just heard that he has been accepted for a new ice show that will be touring the US later in the year.
Its a completely new show entitled the Wonderful World of Disney. As yet he doesn't know exactly what part he will play but he is excited about the prospect of joining the show.
You can see Jaymes skate one of his final performances as an eligible skater in our ice show on the 7th June. Tickets are going fast so if you haven't got yours already give us a call!
