• Mask Usage
  • Masking is optional during Freestyle Contract Ice and Figures sessions for skaters & coaches
    
  • Masking is required during all SNHSC group programs, including Learn to Skate, Power & Edge, and Ice Dance for skaters and coaches. 
    
  • Spectators may remove masks while seated.   
  • When masks are required, they must be worn so noses and mouths are covered.  
  • The SNHSC Board of Directors will continue to monitor the numbers locally and follow the guidance as set out by local, state, and federal officials.  Should there be an increase in cases, mask usage may be required again in the future.
    
    
• REGISTRATION for Ice & Programs
  • Skaters must register and pay online using EntryEeze.  Skaters can pre-register until 11:55 pm of the previous day for ice the following day.    Same day registration is available for a late fee on Sundays (until 9:00 a.m.), Wednesdays (until 3:00 p.m.), and Thursdays (until 3:00 p.m.).  Same day registration is not available on Saturdays.
  • NO IN-PERSON WALK-ONS WILL BE ALLOWED UNLESS the skater has registered for the Summer Madness Walk-On package.  All skaters AND coaches MUST pre-register/pre-pay to skate.
  • Sessions can be booked “a la carte”; you can simply book the days/weeks you want.  
  • Ice can be booked in blocks, with the length of the block depending on the day the session is offered.  If your skater wants more time, you'll book the appropriate number of blocks.  
  • There are a limited number of spots available for each session: the cap is 24 total participants - 16 skaters and 8 coaches.

  

• GUEST COACHES
  • ​Every guest coach must adhere to all SNHSC policies and procedures herein, as well as our standard club rules.
  • Guest coaches are not allowed to walk on our ice; they must register for and pay for each session they wish to teach on in advance.
  • Guest coaches may not teach on any session they haven't pre-registered and pre-paid for.  They may not teach a skater from the boards or any off-ice location on our freestyle, dance, or any other session unless they are pre-registered and pre-paid for the session.  Unfortunately, there can no longer be any exceptions to this rule.
  • All guest coaches must present a copy of their USFS Compliance Card (found on USFS website under "members only"), indicating that the coach has liability insurance, had a background check, is registered with USFS, has taken the CERs and has passed SafeSport.  Thanks for your cooperation.

   

• PARENTS and SPECTATORS
  • Please continue to socially distance while in the rink.
  • Please do not gather to socialize at the registration table.
    
    
• PERSONAL ITEMS
  • All skaters and coaches should have a small plastic basket or container (check the Dollar Store), labeled with their name, to put on the boards and keep any personal items (tissues, masks, guards, water bottles, gloves, hand sanitizer, inhalers, notebooks, etc.) organized and distanced from others while on the ice.  Be sure to clearly label your water bottles with your name J
  • Bring a small Ziplock bag and keep it in your basket; use it to dispose of your used tissues, then dispose of the entire bag at the end of the session.
  • Please remember to sanitize your container and personal items before and after your time at the rink.
  • Please minimize the number of items you take onto the ice.  Less is best!

   

• MUSIC
  • All music MUST be sent to our ice monitor electronically.  No music will be played via CD or from personal phones.    
  • Please send all NEW program music (music that you have not previously submitted electronically)  to [email protected], attn: Ken.

• GENERAL RULES
  • Please do not gather around the music box.  Make requests from a distance and then continue to distance for everyone's safety.

• ON-ICE BEHAVIOR FOR SKATERS AND COACHES
  • KEEP MOVING!  Neither skaters nor coaches are allowed to sit on the boards!
  • Skaters should spread out, use common sense and follow social distancing rules at all times.
  • No gathering to talk or socialize!  Skater safety is our number one priority!
  • Coaches should use creative coaching techniques to eliminate contact with their students and to maintain social distance.
  • If a skater needs to sit for some reason (injury, breathing issue, etc.) there will be a designated bench area for them to do so.  The ice monitor will direct skaters to that area.
