On Sunday, Nov 20, we welcomed dozens of new skaters to the Northfield Arena for the Northfield Skating School’s annual Bring a Friend Day. Parents, siblings, neighbors, and friends enjoyed a lesson with an NSS coach and time to learn new skills with their friends. Lessons were followed by a special exhibition of competitive skaters from the Northfield Skating School and guest skaters who train with NSS coaches at the St. Paul Figure Skating Club and Eagan Ice Crystal Figure Skating Club. See more photos on our photos page.

SESSION 3 PARENTS:
The Session 3 parent meeting will be Thursday 1/27 from 7:00-8:00pm at the Bridgewater Elementary School cafeteria, 401 Jefferson Parkway, Northfield.

The meeting was originally scheduled for the Northfield Arena, but we now have access to a larger, brighter space!
All new parents are requested to please attend the meeting to be well-prepared for your child’s first day skating with NSS. Coach and class assignments will be distributed at the meeting. Please contact Carey with questions or if you are unable to attend. The presentation is geared toward parents, but skaters are welcome to attend.

Each skater is invited to bring one special guest to our final Session 2 lesson on Jan 16th!

Friends may bring their own skates or rent skates. Rental skates are available first-come, first-served. ALL friends, regardless of age or relationship to the skater, are required to turn in a signed waiver before entering the ice.
