Skate Wheatley hosted its 14th annual Sweetheart Showcase Saturday with 109 skaters from various clubs taking to the ice to perform skating skills and programs along with group fun routines.
The event serves as a fundraiser for the club but it really was a “FUN” raiser, according to head coach Krislyn Malott-Imeson.
She said all events were judged by Skate Wheatley coaches and each skater received a certificate following their showcase.
“Our next and final big event of the season is Saturday, April 5. It is our annual skating carnival. This year’s theme is “Small Town, Big Heart: A Tribute to Wheatley,” she said. “We’re honouring local businesses and organizations in town. It should be a lot of fun.”
She said Skate Wheatley wants to thank all those in the community who have lent their support thus far. “It truly takes a village.”
