The season is starting to wind down for the Neepawa Figure Skating Club. On Mar. 7, the group participated in the 2015 Skate Canada Manitoba STARSkate Championships in Swan River and ended the event with some very positive results. 

In the Star Two category, both Claire Beaumont and Khrystyna Polyniak received a bronze ribbon. In Star Three, Cordelia Smith, Hayley Lindsay and Jenna Beaumont each received recognition by earning a bronze ribbon.

For Star Four, the performance of Karissa Ellis was good enough to earn her a bronze medal, while Brooklyn Chartrand won silver in the Star Five under 13 class and Kara Ellis took home a bronze in the Star Five over 13 category. 

Coaches Cynthia Chartrand and Kim Smith noted that all the skaters were able to come through with personal best skates and the team was very excited about their success at the STARSkate Championship. 

The season draws to an end for  some members of the Neepawa Figure Skating Club with the “Skating Around the World” ice show on Sunday, Mar. 22.  The club’s annual showcase is scheduled from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm at the Yellowhead Arena.  All three of the synchro teams, as well as the CanSkaters, Rising Star group and StarSkaters will all perform. The day will also include the final performances by graduating skater, Amy Todoruk.
