Registration for CLUB MEMBERS - Club Members Requesting* participation in the Winter Ice Show 2026.

"Home for the Holidays" Sunday, December 13th, 2:30pm

Registration Due: Friday, November 6th.

• All show registration has been condensed into one registration form. Please review the updated form and work with your skater’s coach and/or show director to complete your registration accurately and submit it by the deadline Friday, Nov. 6th.

• Skaters and volunteers will have earlier arrival times. Skater and volunteer arrival time specifics will be posted closer to show day to accommodate ice show set up and skater warm- ups. Skater arrival time are approx. 1.5 hours before show time.

• Dress Rehearsal will be held on Saturday, Dec. 12th starting on ice at 2:30pm with an earlier arrival time.

• Members are REQUIRED to work with 3 sponsors that they WILL contact to support the club by buying ad space in the 2026 Winter Show program. DEADLINE for ads Dec. 1st, 2026.

• Please use the sponsor packet [Link on Sponsor Partner Page] to secure 3 sponsors who will purchase ad space in the Winter SHOW program. The sponsor funds help to offset skater ice fees, so fees to members can stay affordable.

• Skaters/Coaches- Programs/Music: Club skaters are encouraged to participate in the ice show! It is a fun and amazing time to show of skating skills. Skaters can set a goal, establish good practice habits and get the feel for a low-pressure, on-ice, performance. This is a steppingstone for skaters looking to compete. Practicing being on the ice alone, supports an essential skill in our sport.

• Skaters have the option of choosing a solo performance. If a skater chooses a solo performance, it is up them and their coach to select a song. The chosen song can only be OFF theme if the skater is actively preparing for an upcoming competition (ie start of 2027). The flexibility for choosing a song out of theme is for the purpose of benefiting skaters who are traveling to represent HFSC at competition. If a skater is NOT going to compete, they are required to choose and on-theme song. Songs are claimed via first come first serve. Skaters/coaching can email a hold request to the show director for songs at any time, but registration requirements must be met if any duplicate songs are chosen.

• Songs must comply with USFS Music Policy. USE OF MUSIC AT U.S. FIGURE SKATING SANCTIONED AND APPROVED EVENTS.

• Skaters also have the option of choosing a duet and/or small group performance. Coaches will assess if an additional performance with another/other skaters is possible. We trust that coaches will assess the practice times and skater commitment and only sign off on duets that will be show ready. If a skater chooses a group/duet performance, they must skate to an ON THEME song. (please reach out to show director if skaters are taking a competitive route). Please see main show page for this year’s theme. Songs are claimed via first come first serve. Skaters/coaching can email a hold request to the show director for songs at any time, but registration requirements must be met if any duplicate songs are chosen.

• *Requesting: HFSC is growing every year. We work to include as many skaters as possible in a limited ice rental space. If we get to capacity with show number requests, we will use the following criteria to edit the numbers down to size: registration deadline met, registration submitted accurately, skater participating in weekly practice sessions, skater in multiple performances, skater working with coach, skater skating level, skater current on club dues and ice payments, skater compliant with volunteer policy, etc..

• We are able to accommodate roughly 35 performances into the ice show time frame. If we receive more requests than what will fit into the time frame the HFSC board will use the above criteria to get the program down to size. Our goal is to offer this opportunity to all our members. We do not foresee any of these measures needing to be taken, but with so many performances last year (many skaters performed twice) we must establish a policy.

• Communication. With the introduction of the BAND app ice show communication will primarily run through the BAND app. Weekly breakdowns will be emailed. BAND app invites will go out after the close of registration.
