I Love to Skate Program
Unfortunately the “I Love to skate” program in Tanglewood is now full and I don’t have any more vouchers to give out.
Small group instruction for children ages 6 to 12 years old (weather permitting)
The I Love to Skate program is a learn-to-skate program for children that face financial barriers to participation in organized sport and recreation activities. The program is run by the City of Ottawa thanks to grant funding through partnerships with Canadian Tire Jumpstart charities and the Senators Community Foundation. Participants in I Love to Skate program will develop basic skating skills and each participant will receive a pair of skates and a helmet to keep so they can continue to enjoy skating after the program has ended.
