Welcome to the 2017/18 skating season!

Now the season is under way we will be hosting a family skate and club appreciation event on Saturday 11th November in partnership with our AGM - it's also time to update the photo board!

Here is a quick schedule of events (times are subject to change so please check back on our website for updates):

Notice of the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of The Minto Skating Club 2016-17

Saturday November 11, 2017, 4PM

The annual meeting of the Minto Skating Club will be held on Saturday, November 11, 2017 at 4 PM at the Minto Skating Centre, 2571 Lancaster Road, Ottawa, Ontario.

Nominating Committee Report

Minto Skating Club

2017-18

The Nomination slate will be posted as soon as it is available.

The President position is a two year term that is elected on odd numbered years so the current President, will be elected at the AGM

The Treasurer is also a two year term that is elected in odd numbered years, so the Treasurer will be elected this year by the board of directors this year

The Vice President, Rachel Kreft, and Secretary, Carrie Cuhaci, are entering into their 2nd year of their term as these positions are elected on the even numbered years.

As a result of the amalgamation of the Ontario sections, our constitution and bylaws will be amended to reflect that change. The change proposal is:

The Constitution and Bylaws of Minto Skating Club will be amended as follows:

Article 2 section d) will be changed from "The Club is located in the Eastern Ontario Section of Skate Canada." to "The Club is located in the Skate Ontario section of Skate Canada."The  AGM is important for our members (parent of a member for our skaters that are under 18) to attend - anyone who is a club member from CanSkate and up is eligible to attend.

**Please note any member not able to attend the AGM is asked to sign a proxy - these will be available at the office or from any board member from November 1st onwards**

Lindt Make A Difference at Stars On Ice 2017

The Minto Skating Club was wonderfully represented yet again at Stars On Ice at the Canadian Tire Centre on April 30th.  Like last year we had some wonderful volunteers organizing and distributing chocolates but this year we had the added treat of one of our skaters being able to perform at the intermission!   Just before the Lindt chocolates were handed out  Juliana Ye was given the opportunity of having a "Dream Come True" by the Lindt Make A Difference Campaign.  We would like to thank Lindt for such a wonderful opportunty!
