Edson Figure Skating Club's Annual Showcase
by Deanna Mitchener
The Edson Figure Skating Club hosted their
Annual Showcase event on January 21 at Repsol
Place.
This year their focus was on choreography.
Kelsey DeZutter, Professional Coach with the
Edson Figure Skating Club, said, "Our annual
Showcase performance was fee admission but we
ask that guests please bring a non-perishable Food
Bank donation.
Participants were from a wide age group from
seven to 17. "Intermediate and Senior Skaters
performing their solos, as well a group number
from the primary skaters was showcased," said
DeZutter. "The girls have been preparing their
solos and working on applicable skills since
September."
DeZutter has been coaching for the past 17 years
and when asked what she enjoyed most about Primary Group: Alyse Mitchell, Emry Johnson, Savanna Hamilton, and Henley McTavish during the
being a coach, she said, "Watching these kids Edson Figure Skating Club's Annual Showcase on January 21. photos Deanna Mitchener
crush goals and achieve new things. It's extremely
rewarding to watch them succeed after they put so
much time and effort into their practice."
The Club was also busy with seminars that took
place back in October. "Our senior skaters
attended their first test day back in December and
showed a great passing rate."
"We will be heading to our first competition of
the season in Grande Prairie on January 25 to 27
and everyone is excited about attending their first
competition of the season," added DeZutter.
