“This has proven to be a great family event and an even greater pass-time for the youth to enjoy,” Councillor Sloane said, “So come to the George Dixon on Saturday, grab some hot chocolate and just enjoy the day.”

The Councillor said organizers are also appealing to the public to donate ice skates for the event, particularly for girls and boys in sizes 7,8,9, and10.
