I really liked reading about the show the adults put on. It got me thinking about doing something similar where I live. It never would have occurred to me. I like how they did an educational component, using lower level skaters to explain to the audience the basics of the sport. Clever! I don't know if we have as sizable an adult community, but I think it's big enough to put something together. Not anytime soon, but it's an idea I'm going to keep in mind.

What a great newsletter!  Thank you for sharing, and thank you to everyone involved in pulling it together; I know that's a lot of work.  I also especially liked the article about the adult show.  Having the list of adult events was very handy, too.

Great to hear quality in Adult Silver freeskate is winning over quantitiy!  I have always thought 5 jumping passes and 3 spins was too much for the 2:10 program!  I was equally happy to see Bronze requirements drop last year!
