RULES FOR GENERAL SKATING

The observance of the Club's Rules is most important to assure the enjoyment and safety of all members.  On the ice, there are always skaters of varying ages and ability levels, and it is extremely dangerous to skate out of control at any time. 

Any member of the Board of Governors or authorized person (rink attendants) may at any time for cause temporarily suspend for one or two days any person from the priveleges of the Club for violating any of the Club rules.  In extreme cases, Club privileges may be suspended indefinitely.

The Board of Governors strongly urges every parent to share these rules with his or her entire family:

1.  On the Ice:  Fast skating, tag, sliding on the ice, sitting on the rails, etc. are not permitted at any time.  No hockey sticks are to be brought on the rink during general and figure skating sessions.

2.  Head Protection:  Hockey players must wear helmets at all times.  As to other skaters, we are strgonly convinced that some form of hat should always be worn to reduce the possibility of serious head injury.  Face protection is also required to be worn during all hockey programs.

3.  Club House:  Skates must be removed before going to the second floor.  No hockey sticks are allowed inside the Club and empty drink containers and papers must be deposited in trash receptacles.

4.  Children:  Young children (generally under the age of 8) must be accompanied by an adult.  Any member failing to pick up a child after the rink closes will be charged $5 for each half hour period.  Disciplinary action will be taken for a second violation.

5.  Figure Skating Professionals:  The Club has hired figure skating professional for the sakting season.  Therefore, members may not bring any outside professionals to the Club.  Any exception must be approved by the Figure Skating Committee.

GUEST POLICY

All guests must be signed in at the snack bar and registered before they begin skating.  Guests must be accompanied by members at all times.  A charge of $10 will be made for each guest per day.
