ICE SKATING IS EASY…IF YOU KNOW HOW

-

Pekin Park District offers a variety of Learn To Skate classes for those who want to get active, learn new skills, develop confidence and have fun!  Classes are available from beginning to the more advanced Jump &Spin.   You do not need expensive equipment to start skating – we have skates that you can use.   Session 1 begins October 10 and lasts for 4 weeks.  We then start Session 2, an 8 week program that ends with participation in the Winter Wonderland Holiday Show.  Session 3 will be 8 weeks starting in the New Year and ending with our Annual Ice Show.
Classes are Mondays 5:45 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. and/or 6:30 p.m. – 7:15 p.m.  and Wednesdays 6:00 p.m. – 6:45 p.m. and/or 6:45 p.m.  – 7:30 p.m.  

We are also the home rink for the award winning Precise Ice Team.  Registering for at least one Learn To Skate class per session allows skaters the opportunity to join Precise Ice and to enjoy skating as part of a team which allows them to spend time with others who love to skate and enjoy competition.  As members of Precise Ice, skaters build strength, develop artistry on the ice, and learn choreography for performance and competitions. 


For registration information, please call (309)347-7275 or e-mail dwilde@pekinparkdistrict.org.
