Holiday Showcase

December 18, 2022

Our annual Holiday Performance Showcase took place at Jack Charron Arena. Performances featured figure skating by GCSC Academy and STARSkaters of all levels. Family and friends who came out to see the show and support the club enjoyed hot chocolate and popcorn, a chance to earn raffle prizes and a 50/50 draw. After the show, all were welcome to stay and enjoy a family skate. A huge thank you is due to our volunteer photographer, Jane MacAulay, for taking the photos and to Clark Merchant for being our announcer and photo editor!

                                                                    

Congratulations to our raffle ticket winners!
