FREESTYLE ICE TIME AND ICE SCHEDULES:
Alana Kelton, Outgoing Skating School Director, Sara Beth Carbonaro, Incoming
Skating School Director and Rob Lunde, Ice Rink Manager were asked to make a
presentation regarding the changes that were made to the ice schedules last year.
Monday's Figure Skating ice time was eliminated and Rob recommends keeping the ice
schedule for the upcoming season the same. After much discussion, on a motion by
Chairman Druker, seconded by Commissioner Paonessa, the commission unanimously
approved to keep the ice schedule the same.
ICE RINK FEES:
Rob Lunde, Ice Rink Manager proposed to keep all Ice Rink General Admission Fees
the same for the 2019 — 2020 season and to increase the Rink Rental Fee by

ICE TIME:
The House League Hockey program has requested 3 hours of ice time on Saturday
