So pleased to share that 10 of Calalta’s skaters not only made it to the Nationals but we brought home 2 – yes 2 medals!! Jessica-Lee and Jackson Behiel brought home the bronze to Alberta (first one in 20 years) in Novice Dance and Takara Dei and Josh Venema brought home a bronze as well in Novice Pairs! So pleased to see such our Dance and Pairs programs producing results!
Rounding out the 10 skaters we have Yujin Armstrong (Novice Men), Dustin Sherriff-Clayton (Senior Men), Pearl Kang and Cael Elford (Novice Dance) and Emily Mikulcik and Malcolm Kowan (Novice Dance).
Time to review the rules again! Parents – please review these with your kids!
