One Week Just for Adult Skaters

Whether you are pursuing tests, refining competitive goals, coaching, or skating simply for the love of it, this camp offers a place to grow, connect, and be challenged in a supportive and encouraging environment.

Early registration ends April 20, 2026.

Throughout the week, skaters take part in a balanced schedule designed to support both skill development and enjoyment.

As of now, this is a draft schedule based on last year’s camp and will be finalized closer to the start of the 2026 camp. Please check back for updates.

Open freestyles (excluding 5/23) are included with camp fees. Let the front desk staff know you are part of the camp when you check in. Off-ice clinics will be determined when the private lesson schedule is done.

Once more, the Saturday morning freestyle sessions are not included with camp fees. If you want to skate these sessions, you must check in with the front desk and pay for these sessions ($13.00 per session.)
