Purchases, Volunteer Coordinators, and Riverfront Dates

New Purchase Policy – all club members need preapproval for any purchase they wish to bill to the club. Please submit a Permission for Purchases form located on the website (Club Information– Forms). This excludes items that will be billed to skaters (i.e. costumes). If approval is not given, club members will be responsible for the purchase amounts. 

A reminder of an existing policy – club members wishing to be reimbursed for a preapproved purchase should complete an Expense Reimbursement FormThis can also be found on the website (Club Information- Forms).

New Request – as we say goodbye to another large group of seniors, we also prepare to lose a lot of dedicated volunteers. In an effort to make this transition smooth and update policies and procedures, we are asking all volunteers to create a Checklist of Responsibilities associated with their specific roles. If you are listed as a volunteer here, we ask you to work on creating this checklist. Please include a timeline of tasks, necessary contacts, budget items, and all other pertinent information a new volunteer may need stepping into that role. Please email your checklist to cifscstevenspoint@gmail.com. It will be uploaded to our Google Folder. If you are comfortable with Google docs, the folder can be shared with you so you can keep the form updated. If you prefer to update the form and send it to the club at the end of every season, that is fine too. Please submit all checklists by the end of June. 

Riverfront is a great opportunity to earn credits towards your skating costs. This year Riverfront Rendezvous will be held July 1-3. Save these dates and keep an eye out for sign-up information in May.

Stevens Point Holiday Parade – JOIN US!

It’s not too late to join the CIFSC and the Stevens Point LTS Program for the Holiday Parade on Wednesday, November 17th. We will be finalizing the float beginning at 5:00. You can meet us in line near the post office. The parade starts at 6:00 and will travel down Main Street and end on the square. The skaters will be walking with the float. Skaters are invited to dress up in costumes or club attire.

*Please send along a bag of candy to be passed out along the parade route. 

We hope to see you there!

Digital Music Pilot Program

The club would like to try using a digital music player in place of CDs. This is a pilot program for this season, so until the kinks are worked out, skaters should still bring their CDs to their packages.

In order to try this method, we will need skaters or their coaches to upload a digital version of their solo, duet, artistic piece, and dance songs.

Please use the Music Uploads link to upload your music to each package that you skate. The title should include your skater’s name, and if a duet or artistic program is being uploaded, please include that detail in the file name as well. Please be careful not to delete anyone else’s music.

If you need to update your music the link is on the website under Skating Opportunities, Package Ice. Please email Liz Anderson at eanderson731@gmail.com if you update your music after December 1, 2021.
