Group Picture for Southwest Regionals
There will be a group picture taken on MONDAY September 15 of the skaters
competing at Southwestern Regionals. This picture will be in the competition program
so please plan on being there in your competition attire with skates on. We will meet in
front of the fireplace, across from the concession stand on MONDAY. Please be ready
for the picture at 5:00pm as we have skaters that will need to get on the ice as soon
as the
picture is taken. Get there early if possible and we will get this done as fast as possible.
Please meet in front of the fireplace.
Also, if you have entered Southwesterns as a qualifying or non-qualifying competitor,
please e-mail Ken LaFonte so he can get a list of everyone competing.
