Seattle Skating Club turns 75

Seattle Skating Club is turning 75 with an Ice Show; “Celebrating 75 Years.” Get ready for some excitement! This professionally choreographed show will feature performances by our own fantastic local talent, past and present homegrown Champions, and a special guest performance by Jozef “Jumpin’ Joe” Sabovcik, Olympic Bronze medalist, and European Champion.

Edmonds' own Rosalyn Sumners, 1983 World Champion, 2001 Hall of Fame Inductee, 1984 Olympic Silver Medalist will host a "Meet and Greet" from 3:30-5:00 pm on Saturday between shows, where you can meet other Olympians such as Cynthia Kauffman (Marshall) and Ron Kauffman, 1964 and 1968 US Pairs Olympians, 1995 Hall of Fame Inductees, and our very Sharon Jones (Baker) and Paul Askham, 1988 British Ice Dance Olympians.

In 1936, the Seattle Skating Club joined the U.S. Figure Skating Association and a legacy of skating in the Seattle area was born. 

Over the years we have celebrated Olympic and World medalists, and mourned the loss of club members in the 1961 US World Team plane crash. We have changed rinks, hosted Regional, Sectional, and International events and brought opportunities to countless Seattle area youngsters and adults.

The community is invited to join them on Friday April 13th at 7:00pm, or Saturday April 14th at 11:00am or 5:00pm, at the Olympic View Ice Arena, 22202-70th Avenue West, Mountlake Terrace, WA 98043.
