Welcome to the Northwoods Figure Skating Club!

Session & Fundraiser Information! 11.05.2025 

• PIZZA
  • Our first nights of the session were very successful!  For those that were not able to attend the parent meetings, please reach out to your rink coordinator for Heggie’s Pizza Order forms with the directions.  Please READ the directions and reach out if you have any questions.  Rice Lake orders are due on Nov. 30th and Cumberland orders are due on Dec. 1st.  What you need to turn in is the sheet with the total number of pizzas.  In terms of payment, you will also need to turn in cash and/or check written out to NFSC from you personally.  We cannot accept checks made out to Heggie’s or checks written out to NFSC from non-club pizza buyers.  Again, if you have any questions, please reach out.  Pizzas will be delivered on Monday, Dec. 15th to the Cumberland Rink.  You may pick up your pizzas anytime 5:30pm-8pm that evening.  We will need helpers that night starting at 4pm to sort and box the orders.  Please let me know if you are able to assist.
• NFSC APPAREL
  • Our Northwoods Figure Skating Apparel site is NOW OPEN!  Here is the link: https://stores.unitedteamelite.com/northwoods_figure_skating_2025/shop/home All apparel orders must be completed by Nov. 20th.  This will ensure items will be delivered by Christmas.

Rice Lake Meeting Times:  5:15pm (Snow Plow-Basic 6) and 6:15pm (Pre-Free+) Cumberland:  7:00pm- Information will then be emailed out in an effort to save on trees

CUMBERLAND TIME SCHEDULE

The Cumberland Free Style Ice time was previously posted incorrectly.  Here are the correct Cumberland times:

6:30-7:30pm: Snow Plow through Basic 6

7-8pm: Pre-Free through Free Skate 6

7:30-8pm:  Punch Card Ice

Rice Lake Hockey Arena

*5-6pm Snow Plow—-Basic 6

*6-7pm Pre-Free—Free Skate 6

*7-8pm Punch Card Ice—Advanced Levels

All skaters participating in lessons will need to register for their membership as well as their lessons.  If you already did the membership for the summer session, you are covered through June 30, 2026 for membership and will just need to pay for lessons.  You can access the registration site by way of our website:  https://northwoodsfsc.com/session-dates/

When registering, you do not need to know the specific level your skater is in, just if they are Snow Plow, Basic or Free Skate.

If you are interested in private lessons for your skater in addition to their group lessons, please reach out to a coach OR you can respond to this email.  Private lessons are typically 30 minutes long.  They may be during your child’s practice ice or during the free style ice time, depending on availability.  When a skater does private lessons, if they are during their half hour of practice ice, they do not need to pay for ice time but they need to pay the coach at the end of the session.  If the lesson is during free style ice time, they will need to purchase a punch card for the ice time, as well as paying a coach.  If you have any questions at all in regard to private lessons please contact club president, Hilary Butzler

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Hilary Butzler

2026 Show Dates to be March 14-15, 2026.  Mark your calendars! 🙂 

The Northwoods Figure Skating Club (NFSC) is a non-profit, non-stock incorporated organization whose purpose is to encourage instruction, practice and advancement of its members in all types of figure skating and basic hockey skating concepts. NFSC was founded in 1989 and skates at the Cumberland and Rice Lake Hockey Arenas.

NFSC is an official member of the United States Figure Skating Association (USFSA), the governing body of amateur skating in the United States. This association entitles the local skaters to conduct and participate in official USFSA test sessions, competitions and ice shows.

Along with taking lessons with NFSC, many of our skaters participate in USFSA testing and competitions. Our Free Style skaters have a strong presence at the Northland Competition in Duluth, Roseville Competition, Maplewood Classic, Eau Claire Competition and many more!

NFSC accepts skaters throughout the year. Our club consists of all skill levels from ages 4 and up. We are always looking to grow our participation in the club. Questions regarding the NFSC can be directed to info@northwoodsfsc.com.
