Guidance for selecting your class:
 

• Skaters ages 3 & 4 will start in the Snowplow Sam level. 
   

• All beginner skaters, ages 5 and older will start in the Basic Skills 1 level.  ​(If your skater belongs in Basic 1 but Basic 1 is sold out, please do not register him/her in the Snowplow Sam or Basic Skills 2 level, it will result in an invalid registration once discovered). 

​​​​​​​​

Please read the schedule and class offerings carefully and thoroughly.

​

Due to ice availability, Learn to Skate lessons will be on Thursday evenings. Only Snowplow Sam and Basic Skills 1-6 levels will be offered this season. There will be no weekend classes available.* We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

*An exception is being made to offer a Saturday Basic 1 class for Session 4 only. 

​

If registering a returning skater from last session or another rink's LTS program, please select their current level.  All skaters that are new to the LTS program should select either Snowplow Sam (ages 3-4) or Basic Skills 1 (ages 5+).  Skills assessments may be done on the first evening of class to ensure that all participants are in the appropriate level for their abilities. 

​

​Please choose your skater’s level carefully. BCFSC cannot be responsible for invalid registrations (for example, registering a skater age 5 or older in Snowplow Sam, or registering above their current skill level). If a registration is found to be invalid, placement in the correct class will depend on availability at the time the issue is discovered — not the original registration date —therefore, space in the appropriate level cannot be guaranteed and may not always be available.
