Hi Everyone:

Thanks everyone Moms and Dads , Adult Skaters , and our great kids
that pitched in to help over the weekend ….at Empires…the 30th
Anniversary and the test session..you guys Rock. Thank you to bakers
that made the warm up room for coaches and volunteers warm and
cozy…and from what I heard was very appreciated. Thanks to our
great coaches that prepared our skaters so well for Empires and the
tests…I want you to know that the judges went out of their way to
tell us how well our local kids were prepared…and how important the
Basics are to the higher levels.

Ollie and Sue you guys are great …seems like you were doing tests
for years…Krissa thanks for you continued service …without the
dedication of judges these events can’t go on..

Lastly, Thanks to the ORDA guys that are always so helpful …and give
us the best ice I ever skated on.

Thanks Again,

Ro Gole
