Volunteers are needed to make this event happen!
Lots of on-ice and off-ice volunteers and officials are needed to run an event like this. If you are able to help, please email ykspeedskating@gmail.com. If you are interested helping make food to keep our volunteers feed during the meet, please email the Food Coordinator (Jana).
Make sure your skaters have freshly sharpened skates for the Meet!
Speed skates have a different type of blade than hockey or figure skates and therefore need to be sharpened in a special way. Skates should be sharpened before the season, at least once a month and before events/meets to enhance a skater’s ability and protection of our skates. Please ask your coach to have one of our Competitive Skaters sharpen skates for your younger skater. The cost is $10 direct to the skater.
