A LETTER FROM OUR CAPTAINS (Fall 2017)

Hello!  We are so excited to start the 2017-2018 season.  It’s been wonderful to both see familiar faces back on campus and also welcome our three newest members: Michaela, Darya, and Sherrina. But, we can’t help but miss our ’17s. It was great seeing you and others at alumni skate, and we hope you all can visit this year!

In addition to working hard on the ice and setting weekly goals with our training buddies, we have also been having a lot of fun getting to know each other off the ice.  We held our annual homecoming team dinner, complete with skating trivia, pizza, and amazing homemade baked goods, before participating in the parade. In addition, inspired by the beautiful fall weather we went apple picking together!

We’re looking forward to hitting the ice for our first competition of the season at NYU. We can’t wait to start competing with our goal in mind of qualifying for Nationals!

Most importantly, we want to take the time to say “thank you” to the Friends of Dartmouth Figure Skating for all of your support.  Our team is strengthened by our shared passion for skating, love of Dartmouth, and respect and friendship for each other.  Some of our best memories with the team are formed through traveling and competing together.  Without the continued love and support of our Friends, our season would not be possible; we are so incredibly grateful!

We are looking forward to a great year, and hope you are too!  Please continue to stay in touch; we will be live tweeting our competitions and posting to our Instagram to keep you up-to-date on DFSC's results and other activities. Go Big Green!

Love,

2017-2018 Co-Captains
