Practices are typically held on Thursdays and Saturdays. Check the schedule for the exact times. Several in-line skaters have expressed interest in coming out for practice. Many cyclists also speed skate to keep them in shape during the winter months.
Beginners are welcome and off-ice lessons and warm up time begin well before practice.
There is no charge for the pre-practice lessons. A longtime skater, Bob Harwell says that you do not need speed skates or even skates to get started. You can use hockey skates, figure skates or rental skates to learn the techniques. The skaters are very interested in bringing beginners into the sport. These people also are more likely to excel quicker as they are taught the proper methods and techniques of the sport.
