COST. ---------------------------Not updated for 21/22 Season yet
The cost of ice for the Soaring Stars Program for the spring session (April, May, & June) is $75. You will also need to pay $30 to the Cortland Figure Skating Club for your skater's USFSA membership fee. SOARing Stars get more days of skating and other benefits not available to Learn to Skate Program Skaters. Ice Membership is paid to JM McDonald Sports Complex.
This includes:
- Ice time
- A 30-minute group lesson each Sunday from 2:30-3:00 pm followed by a 30 minute free skate, as well as 1 hour of ice on Monday, Thursday or Saturday (see above times)
SOARing Stars skaters are also encouraged to have additional private lessons. The additional cost of individual coaching (private lessons) is paid directly to the skater's coach. Working directly with your skater's coach allows you to have private lessons that will provide your child with more individualized attention to help her/him achieve various skill levels and skating goals. Lessons are typically 15 - 30 minutes each week and our coaches' rates typically range from $12-$18 for each 15-minute lesson. You and your skater would pick a coach from our CFSC Professionals not every coach is at the rink every night, so you will need to work out scheduling with your skater's coach.
