Congratulations are in order for all the young skaters who won the "No Test" team trophy at the Middle Atlantic Championships, held September 10, 11 and 12.  Although most competitors are from suburban rinks located throughout the middle atlantic region, our Junior Prep program produced enough medals to bring the trophy home to Sky Rink. Our terrific team of coaches had a lot to do with this accomplishment, so congratulations to them too!

Well done!
