Figure 8 Skating Club Receives Jumpstart Sport Relief Fund

We are excited to announce our skating club has been selected to receive the Jumpstart Relief Fund Grant. We will be using these funds to create our Summer Skating Program due to our extensive loss of ice time for figure skaters in the 2020/2021 season. Covid-19 has had a significant impact on our figure skating club as well as the sport in general. The Jumpstart Relief Fund Grant will go a long way in our organization. It allows us to continue to provide our skaters the opportunity to come together to enjoy their sport, maintain their physical fitness and work on rebuilding their skills which may have regressed during all the closures this season . The summer program will also include a special showcase at the end of the session where skaters will be able to present their skills to family in a fun environment. Thank you Jumpstart for providing access to sport and play for Canadian kids!
