PA of the Month – GRACE SMERCHINSKI
Grace began skating at the age of 3. She became a PA because she wanted to inspire young skaters the same way the PAs and coaches who taught her did while she was participating in CanSkate. She loves being greeted by their smiling faces every time she steps on the ice, it lights up her day!
In the limited time she has outside of skating, she enjoys doing many things. She loves hanging out with her friends and spending time with her siblings and family. Grace plays the violin and is an avid Greys Anatomy and Survivor fan! However, Grace says that “none of these things are as fun as skating, which is where I spend the majority of my time.”
Skater of the Month – DYNICETY INTERMEDIATE
In their debut season this team, along with Coach Rebecca Babb have surpassed all expectations. From a bumpy beginning to a provincial championship and an exciting personal best at the national championships. These skaters have come together to improve daily and prove hard work and strong team spirit pays off. These skaters are 14-17 years old and are all members of KWSC.
