Kids Summer Skating Camps
Our Ice Skating Camps
Junior Ice Skating
Ages 4-5
The Snowplow Sam levels are introductory classes divided into four progressive levels allowing children with no prior skating experience to build confidence while learning the basic skills of skating. These classes are designed to help children six and younger develop the ABCs of movement: agility, balance, coordination, and speed. The ABCs are essential for developing fundamental movement skills and physical literacy. All classes will be taught in a safe and positive environment, incorporating fun and games, making class time an enjoyable experience for all. Skaters are on the ice for an hour lesson and participate in preschool related activities, including, storytime, arts and crafts, bouncy house, puppet show and gymnastics. Campers pack their own lunch - snack is provided.
Camp runs 8:30am - 2:00pm.
Extended Day Camp runs 8:30am - 3:15pm.
