Week of November 4, 2018

Good evening Blizzard families,
I hope that all of you, and your families are surviving the shift to daylight savings time, so far. The true test will be getting out of bed and out the door for school and work tomorrow morning.

As we get closer to our Interclub meet - Central Interior Challenge (Nov.17) the PG Blizzard would like to acknowledge all the work being done by Meet Coordinator Keri McLeod behind the scenes to make this a great event for our club skaters and our guests from across the province.

***************************************************************************
1. MEET ENTRY

A reminder that Registration forms for the PG Blizzard CICO on November the 17th are due by November 8th. Kari Rae is our club's meet entry coordinator. 

Registration forms are available here:
https://www.bcspeedskating.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/CIC-Announcement.pdf

Please hand completed forms in to Kari Rae this week.

If you need to access the BCSSA site to look up your skater's Personal Best (PB) times you can access the site here: http://lookup.speed-skating.bc.ca/request/pbtimes/  

If you have any questions please contact Kari Rae, Keri McLeod, or any of the more "experienced" parents.

All skaters registered in the Learn to Skate program are eligible to compete in one local meet - this is the perfect opportunity! All skaters will skate with skaters of a similar ability, and we like to say "we compete against our shadow", the goal is to set a new personal best. The Active Start skaters will also be able to participate in the Jamboree which is all fun and games. 

2. MEET SAFETY

Our club's Safety Coordinator, Meredith Earl, is wondering if any of our parents have  Level 3 Occupational First Aid or equivalent. Please contact Meredith  if you have the certification and are available to assist at any of our three meets this season.

3. PG BLIZZARD BOARD MEETING

A quick reminder to Board members that we are scheduled to meet this Wednesday evening at 6:30pm.
