The 2020 NAFSC Ice Show "Postcards from Paradise" has been cancelled
In light of recent events and continued monitoring of COVID-19 and its spread, coupled with the recommendation by Janet Mills, Maine Governor, and the Maine CDC to cancel large indoor group events of more than 250 people for the next 30 days, we are saddened to inform you all that we will be canceling this year’s 22nd Annual NAFSC Ice Show, “Postcards from Paradise."
This decision has not been made lightly and we assure you that we have weighed every possible option before making this heartbreaking choice. This is our most favorite event of the year and we are sad that we won’t get to celebrate it and watch our skaters shine. However, our number one priority is always the safety and welfare of our skaters, our members, and our visitors. We feel this is, unfortunately, a necessary step to protect everyone.
Because we want to celebrate this amazing show, we are working on alternative plans to give our senior skaters a chance to perform their graduating senior solos, to let all of our skaters take a bow on the ice, and have some fun commemorating “Postcards from Paradise." It will not be the same but we believe all our show skaters deserve their moment in the spotlight so we hope that you will all join us! There will be more details coming soon.
Also, the Board of Directors would like to whole-heartedly thank the Ice Show Committee for their tireless efforts this year. They have already logged countless hours in the creation of “Postcards from Paradise” in preparation for making this a memorable experience for our community- and especially our kids. Along with our Show and Skating Director, Kristin Andrews, and Program Coordinator, Caryn Bickerstaff, our strong volunteer base included Tammie Petty, Anatasyia Baber, Guyin Liu and Valerie Dominski. Our Club is an exciting place to grow and learn because of this type of support and the Club thanks these spectacular ladies for their time, energy and creativity.
Please be aware that this cancellation only applies to the 2020 Ice Show. North Atlantic Figure Skating Club will continue to operate normally and hold club ice sessions as indicated by the posted calendars.
Thank you for your understanding and your support as we navigate this difficult situation.
