Welcome to the Northwoods Figure Skating Club!
We want to thank our skaters, coaches, families, and fans for an amazing 2025-2026 figure skating season! Our board has been meeting and working hard behind the scenes to plan a successful 2026/2027 season! Here are a few updates for our skaters and families as of 04/14/2026:
LOUIE’S BRAT STAND: May 15th and 16th
HELP! We are still in need of families to sign up to assist with our Louie’s Brat Stand fundraiser on May 15th and 16th. If we don’t have the slots filled by Friday, April 24th, we will have to cancel, which would be very unfortunate as this is a good fundraiser for us. Please refer to your club email communications to sign up.
SUMMER ICE
We have put together our plan for summer ice.
Mondays: July 6, 13, 20, 27, August 3, 10 at the Rice Lake Rink we will have a summer session. This will not be like a typical session.
Basic Skills (Snow Plow-Basic 6) will be from 6pm-6:45pm. The kids will be broken up into groups appropriate to their level and will move from station to station on the ice with coaches that will be working on specific skills to help them advance in the fall/winter. This will be paired with music, games and fun!
Free Skate Levels (Pre-Free through Free Skate 6) will be from 6:45pm-7:30pm and will follow the same structure based on their levels.
The last half hour, 7:30pm-8pm, will be punch card ice for Pre-Free and above.
Tuesdays: July 7, 14, 21, 28, August 4, 11 will be Punch Card Ice from 6pm-7pm at the Rice Lake Rink. This will be for levels Pre-Free and above.
The cost for the Monday night session will be $75.
Punch Card prices will remain the same.
We will communicate with the club once registration is open, which will most likely be in mid-May. All registrations must be complete by June 15th-no exceptions! We will also not be admitting new skaters to our club during the summer, but will gladly welcome them for the fall. Remember, all memberships are due on July 1st so if registering for the summer session, you will be paying for the session plus the membership fee. The membership fee is a one-time fee for the whole year, July 1st-June 30th. Skaters cannot be on the ice without the membership as that covers the insurance. If your skater cannot make all of the nights, that is okay. This session is designed with that in mind as we know summers are busy. The goal is to get the skaters back on the ice so they’re ready to go in the fall.
Fall Session
Our Fall session will start in Rice Lake on Sunday, September 13th, with Cumberland to follow in November. We will communicate once the Fall registration is open.
Our board made the decision to purchase a figure skate sharpener for our club and will be offering a special punch card so skaters can get their skates sharpened without having to travel. Stay tuned for more information on that!
NFSC Skating Show 2027
Our annual skating show in 2027 will be the weekend of March 20th-21st. Pray for no snow!
The Northwoods Figure Skating Club (NFSC) is a non-profit, non-stock incorporated organization whose purpose is to encourage instruction, practice and advancement of its members in all types of figure skating and basic hockey skating concepts. NFSC was founded in 1989 and skates at the Cumberland and Rice Lake Hockey Arenas.
NFSC is an official member of the United States Figure Skating Association (USFSA), the governing body of amateur skating in the United States. This association entitles the local skaters to conduct and participate in official USFSA test sessions, competitions and ice shows.
Along with taking lessons with NFSC, many of our skaters participate in USFSA testing and competitions. Our Free Style skaters have a strong presence at the Northland Competition in Duluth, Roseville Competition, Maplewood Classic, Eau Claire Competition and many more!
NFSC accepts skaters throughout the year. Our club consists of all skill levels from ages 4 and up. We are always looking to grow our participation in the club. Questions regarding the NFSC can be directed to info@northwoodsfsc.com.
