SOE Figure Skaters return from Drayton Valley
November 26, 2011
Special Olympics Edmonton figure skaters were in Drayton Valley Alberta this weekend to compete in the Snowflake and Silhouette Fun Skate this past weekend. All skaters skated extremely well. Co-Head Coach Jeremy Graham had this to say, " (t)he girls did really well and it was super cool that they had an audience to skate to. It boosted them up." This is great news as now our skaters have already tasted success and will want to impress when they skate in front of the home crowd at the Special Olympics Edmonton FUNskate February 12, 2012 at the Terwelligar Recreation Centre.
Here are the results from Drayton Valley:
Level 1
Amy Conley - 1st
Naomi Fleck - 2nd
Level 2
Alana Gersky - 1st
Janelle McGinley- 2nd (this was her first competition)
Christine Stoski - 3rd
Level 3
Cassandra Frauenfeld -1st
Carly McAvoy - 2nd
