Dear Inga,
The Olympics are over, we've seen inliners win big in
long track speed skating, and I for one am inspired to
get down to planning my inline season. Welcome to
the 2006 inline skating season!
| Club registration night - March 30 |
 |
|
Important first date of the year: March 30, 2006, 7
pm at the St Anthony's Soccer Club, 523 St.

It'll be a wonderful evening of socializing and
reconnecting with old skating pals. Enjoy
complementary munchies and a cash bar along with a

season. Special early registration bonuses will be
offered to all people who register on or before March
