Sakting Showcase takes over the Civic Centre this weekend

One of the last opportunities to check out the progress of the skaters of the Northwest for the year comes up this weekend, as the Prince Rupert Skating Club hosts the West Area Jamboree.

The fun competition will feature close to 75 skaters from Clubs around the Northwest, travelling from as far as Smithers.

All of them set to take to the ice, ready to show off the result of a full season of practices and competitions.

The three day event places the skaters into a number of groups, with skaters from Prince Rupert mixing with those from around the region.

All of it making for team building and offering a opportunity to forge new friendships as they take part in the Showcase.

The free event takes place over three three days, with showtimes as follows:

Friday night from 5:30 to 7 PM

Saturday from 8 AM to 6 PM

Sunday from 8 AM to 2 PM

You can learn more about the local club from their Facebook page, which keeps members and those interested in skating  up to date on Club events and news from the skating community.
