North Star Skating Club wrapped up year with Show Case 2014
The North Star Skating Club (NSSC) proudly presented Show Case 2014 on March 7 at Kimberley’s Civic Arena.
Club skaters from the Canskate, Canpowerskate and Starskate programs provided two hours of impressive entertainment for their audience. Coaches Tamara Bannatyne, Caitlin Cavalier and Kim Miller worked very hard over the last few months preparing for this year’s Show. Tamara has been producing a high level of skating within the Starskate program this season and this was certainly evident in their skating performances.
Several skaters received recognition at this year’s show. Caitlin Cavalier finished her final year of skating with the NSSC. Caitlin has achieved great success in the sport of figure skating and has achieved gold level. A special presentation was made to Caitlin at this year’s show.
Zoe Bianca was named Starskater of the year. Zoe has had a very successful competitive year and was recognized for her hard work and accomplishments this season.
Sydney Wilson was chosen as Program Assistant of the year. Sydney enjoys coaching canskate and it certainly showed in her work.
Three canskaters were celebrated as ‘Canskaters of the Year.’ Logan Cox, Kate Moody and Mischa Stevens have showed great progress this season and earned this title out of 40 Canskaters who skated with the club this year. Congratulations to these skaters on being recognized within the club. The NSSC has been very proud of all its club’s skaters this year.
This year’s show was sponsored by Mark Creek Lion’s Club, Creekside Physiotherapy, Moody Bee, R.W. Anderson Contracting and Teck Dormant Properties. The support provided by these sponsors made it possible to offer complimentary admission. Donations were accepted at the door with $1,000 being raised to ensure that NSSC is able to continue its development of local skating programs.
Presently Canskaters and Powerskaters have retired for the season. Starskaters will be participating in the Cranbrook and Invermere spring and summer schools to continue working on their skills, which will be tested at Invermere on April 11. Best wishes to these very dedicated and determined figure skaters.
