Figure skaters rolling out red carpet
The New Prague Area Figure Skating Club will be marking a special date during its spring show. To mark the club’s 20th Anniversary the theme of the show is "Rolling Out the Red Carpet." The show is at the New Prague Ice Arena and will be 4 p.m. Saturday, March 17, and 1 p.m. Sunday, March 18.
"This year’s show is a celebration of 20 years to the theme of the famous Walk of Fame in Hollywood. All of our numbers in the show will represent a famous person on the Walk of Fame," said Coach Kelly Weber. "We are bringing back past skaters for an alumni number and are featuring nine of our skaters who are honored to skate a number with the person that inspired them to be a figure skater or to be a part of our organization."
Just a few of the famous people or groups being featured in the show are Tina Turner, Dolly Parton, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Aerosmith, The Beach Boys and Shania Twain.
"A huge hit has always been the hockey number in the show where hockey players from the New Prague Hockey Association skate with a member of our club and bring a high speed fun number for all to enjoy so we look forward to having those hockey players a part of our show," said Weber.
Weber, who is celebrating 10 years with the club, is just one of the coaches with the program.
