In 1972, a group of Military families wanted to arrange for organized skating lessons for their children. They formed a committee and the Greenwood Skating Club was created. In 1973, The Greenwood Skating Club became fully sanctioned by Skate Canada and according to its rules, operates as a not-for-profit, volunteer-based, community organization. As a 14 Wing Club, we operate under the umbrella of the Wing and its rules and regulations as an NPF organization. As such, we have an Executive Board that sees to the running of the club following its constitution.
Our mandate is to encourage, promote and support the instruction, practice, enjoyment and advancement of its' members in a safe environment in all aspects of skating. The Club is a True Sport member. The Greenwood Skating Club Coaches have been recognized for their commitment to excellence by Skate Nova Scotia and Skate Canada which has awarded the club a reputation as being one of the best places to learn to skate in Nova Scotia and Canada. The Greenwood Skating Club runs programs from the start of September to the middle of May. The Club has a tradition of presenting ‘The Nutcracker On Ice’ each December and ‘The Karen Norman Memorial Funskate’ In February. The clubs history includes Hundreds of Provincial Champions. Regional and National Medalists and a dozen of our alumni were members of Nova Scotia Canada Games Teams as Figure Skaters and many more who went on to play hockey, Ringette and speed skating, after getting their start in our award-winning Canskate Program. |
