Fee/Payment Information:
Fees DO NOT include the mandatory Skate Canada Fee ($58.70).  This fee is non-refundable and must be paid in the first installment.  Skate Canada fee is good from September 1 - August 31, so if you registered for September Skate (STARSkate and RisingSTAR only), you will not pay for this again.

Volunteer Information:
It is a requirement that all Winkler Skating Club families volunteer at club events.  There is NO buy-out option.  We need all members to volunteer so that we can provide events for our skaters.
