WELCOME

The Diamond Edge Figure Skating Club Board of Directors would like to welcome you to the 2009 - 2010 season of figure skating. Whether you are a returning member or interested in becoming part of Diamond Edge. We hope you will enjoy your skating experience with us this year, and you find encouragement, fun and rewards while participating and performing the sport of figure skating.

It is our desire as a figure skating club to make this a wonderful experience for our skaters. All registered skaters with DEFSC (Diamond Edge Figure Skating Club) will be enrolled in the USFS (United States Figure Skating) Basic Skills Program. As members of USFS you will receive an official U.S. Figure Skating Basic Skills membership card, record book with stickers to track your progress through the lessons, official Basic Skills logo patch, membership year patch and sport accident insurance.

Everything you need to register your skater for lessons is included in the class registration materials. Please register early because class size is limited and will be filled on a first come first serve basis. You will be notified if there is a class or scheduling conflict. Please complete the class registration materials and return to DEFSC by October 16, 2009. Those new to Diamond Edge may turn their registration materials in at the open house on October 25th. All members should read the information in this member handbook and the class registration materials in their entirety and keep it handy throughout the season for reference if a question arises.

Thank you again for your interest and commitment to the kids of our community as well as the art and sport of figure skating!
