Skating Lessons Update
Due to the extreme cold forecasted for this weekend, we have decided to move the lessons to next Saturday January 20th 10:30am -11:30am and Sunday January 21st 1-2pm.
For those already registered, if you wish to continue to participate, you do not have to do anything – the registration automatically moves over. If you are unable to participate on the new days, simply email Heather at programs@hawkwoodca.com and we will cancel your registration and refund your money.
We are very much looking forward to seeing everyone at the much warmer lessons on Saturday January 20th or Sunday January 21st.
