Please find links to the full programme for Laurie Hastie at Palmerston North this weekend – this includes speed. There is also a spreadsheet that shows the Artistic sessions timings.

The position of Skaters Representative on the Artistic Committee is currently vacant.

The Skater’s Representative will ideally be someone who is friendly and approachable so that other skaters will be able to speak with them about their ideas and concerns. The Skater’s Rep will be required to attend Artistic Committee meetings (usually 4 per year). They will represent the skaters’ interests at the meetings and bring any skater concerns or requests to the attention of the committee. They will also share feedback from the meetings from time to time with skaters via the Skater’s Rep facebook page. Attached is the nomination form.

Nominations can be sent to the Artistic Committee Secretary (artistic.secretary@gmail.com), and close on the 10th of May.

Expressions Whirinaki is hosting a Wheels Day on Sunday 14 April from 10am – 2pm. UHRSC has been invited to have a table there to promote our sport. In order for us to do this, we need some volunteers to help man the table over this time. If you can help, please let us know by replying to this email. We look forward to hearing from you.
