Figure skaters shine at carnival

Dressed as sharks, kittens, aliens and different members of the cast of Gilligan’s Island, the Strathmore Figure Skating Club showcased what they’ve learned during the year March 14.

The club put together a production this year, Gilligan’s Island Adventure’s on Ice, and each group performed songs that had a Gilligan’s Island theme.

“It was really, really good,” said Leanne Woodcock, head coach. “The kids had so much fun. They were just beaming.”

Woodcock said the show ran smoothly with no problems and that a lot of time and effort went into the show.

The club also honoured a queen and prince, Rebecca Faulks, 13, and Ethan Scott, 5, for selling the most raffle tickets.

The pair were brought out onto the ice in the S.S. Minnow and given capes to wear.

“They were pretty excited about it,” said Woodcock.

The club is looking to do productions like this one in the future.
