This year’s Ice Dance weekend will be packed with new and exciting special events. It will include nearly 10 hours of ice dancing at South Suburban Ice Arena, a tour and picnic at Red Rocks Park, parties, exhibitions, competition, and seminars. All full weekend registration forms with payments received before May 1 st will be eligible for a drawing to receive a handcrafted glass-etched gift made by Carol herself.
Friday, we will kick off the weekend with elegance — wear your best of show attire for the program dance. There will be a buffet supper served at the rink. We will continue our post-skating socializing around the corner at the cozy El Señor Sol restaurant with hot hors d’oeuvres where Carol will share mementos of her skating career.
Saturday we will visit Red Rocks Park (http://www.redrocksonline.com) once listed as one of the seven wonders of the world. We will picnic at this park featuring Mother Nature’s spectacular natural rock formations.
At the rink there will be an on-ice clinic with Carol featuring the fundamentals and finishing touches of the Silver Samba, followed by exhibitions, a group photo, and program dance. The evening events will take place at the Sheraton Hotel with cocktails and a dinner dance. Sunday come in for a continental breakfast before an on-ice clinic. We will pull out all the stops for a Putting On the Ritz competition followed by program dance and a farewell brunch.
The dance weekend is open to adults as well as juniors at the pre-silver level or higher. Full weekend registrants will be given priority. Walk-ins will be welcome if space permits. If you have questions, please contact Carol Splawn at 303-795-6028 or foxskates@yahoo.com.
