THE NEXT SECOND SATURDAY SKATE

is

10 May 2008

SKATING IN JUNE HAS BEEN CANCELLED

Sadly we find ourselves in the difficult position of being advised by Weymouth Sports Club our skating in June is double booked. We can only apologise to all our skaters yet again as this is the second time this has happened this year.  It seems Weymouth Sports Club are unable to show any commitment to all the skaters who come each month- we as organisers are highly disappointed by this especially as we were only notified on 8 May 2008.

January probably saw our biggest skating session so far with over 100 people turning up to join in the New Year fun.  Lots of pictures posted down the right hand side - see if you can spot yourself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you have been coming along to our sessions for a while now you will have noticed we are growing in size.  This has meant that many of you are having to queue for longer to get your equipment before you can start skating, to avoid any delay there are a few things you can do:

  1. Bring a cycle helmet

  2. Buy your own set of pads

  3. Invest in your own skates, kids skates now come in adjustable sizes so they fit for longer, e.g. adjusting from size 1 to 3.

  4. Take advantage of the great deal on offer at Sports of Bond Street this month (see below).
