Volunteers Needed for Open Skate

If you are a member of the Green Bay Figure Skating Club, this is a great way to get volunteer hours.

We will need volunteers there at 6pm to set up & stay until 8:30pm to clean up. We need 2 people to work the check in table, 1 or 2 to run the skate rental & 1 person at the rink door to check for payments.

Please log into your Entryeeze account & tab over to “Volunteers”. There you will see the “Open Skate” option. Volunteering to run one of our open skate sessions will count towards your required volunteer hours. Volunteers MUST be 16 or older.

Thank you in advance for all of your help!

Registration Opens Sunday, Oct. 24!

Do you know family, friends or neighbors looking for a winter activity for their kids? Tell them about Learn to Skate!

Ice Changes

In an effort to increase participation in our early morning sessions and not have to cancel them, we have made a few adjustments to the schedule based off of feedback from our coaches.

As a result, our early morning sessions will now be held on Wednesday & Friday mornings from 6-6:55am.

Ice Schedule

All ice must be contracted by 11:59 pm the day before the session.

Club Ice Sheet – Fall 2021

There are plenty of club ice times that aren’t used to their capacity. Here are some reminders on how we can fill those:

  • Did you know that a skater can skate without their coach on the ice? It’s a great way to practice!
  • If a skater wants to skate for a time that wasn’t signed up for in advance, a Coach’s Reserve ticket may be purchased for the day of. Any coach can provide a ticket for the skater, it does not have to be their coach. The coach will make sure there is room on the ice and give the skater a reserve ticket to fill out name, date and session skated and then drop it in the GGBFSC drop box.

Next Test Session

  • Friday, December 3 – 8am – 7pm – This test session has a GOLD/Senior panel for Moves, Free Skate, Solo Pattern Dance, Partnered Pattern Dance (partner Logan Giulietti-Schmitt) and Solo Free Dance. See website for details.

Ice Monitoring Volunteer Hours

As a reminder, all full and introductory Club members must complete four ice monitoring volunteer hours for both Fall and Spring ice sessions.

When you sign up, please make sure to attend your session. If a conflict comes up, update Entryeeze so another parent can sign up.
