No Ice at the Oval April 1 – May 6
The ice will be out at the Oval from April 1 to May 6. I will be teaching primarily at the County Ice Sheet in Murray, but will also supplement at the Cottonwood Heights rink. I will get with each of my students in the coming week to plan for lessons during the time the ice is out. Show practices will continue off-ice at the Oval from 7-8pm on Wednesdays.
No Ice at the Oval January 13-22
Due to a worldcup event, there will be no ice at the Utah Olympic Oval from January 13-22. Please look at the County Ice freestyle schedule and let me know what sessions you can make there. If you are unable to make any of them, let me know and we may just have to skip a week. Thanks!

A Day Late…
Congratulations to Victoria Tugolukova for her 2nd place finish in Senior Ladies at the Central Pacific Regional Championships! She is going on to the Pacific Coast Sectional Championships which take place November 15-19 in Salt Lake City, UT!
Regionals is the first of the qualifying competitions that lead to Nationals, and then the World Championships (or Olympics during an Olympic year). The structure for qualifying competitions is Regionals > Sectionals > Nationals > World Championships (or Junior Worlds below Senior level). There are three regions in each sections, and three sections in the country. Vica is in the Central Pacific Region, which is part of the Pacific Coast Sections, along with the Southwest Pacific and Northwest Pacific Regions.
