Form 100 be completed in its entirety with full address, phone
and email address and sent to me immediately following your AGM.
I also require two club contacts that I can rely on to check their email
on a regular basis. I will always distribute incoming Skate Canada
rule changes or other information by email and experience proves that it
works best to have two contacts per club in case one person is away or
someone’s computer goes down.
I would appreciate receiving the above information as soon as possible.
To help with planning your club fee structure for next season, I have been
advised that the Skate Canada member registration fees have been
increased to $30 plus insurance. While this seems to be a substantial
increase, it is still $20 lower than the average membership fees of what
other comparable sports organizations currently charge their members.
The previous fee of $14 was in effect for the last 15 years and so was
long overdue for an increase.
The insurance fee will continue to be approx. 80 cents per member.
If your club is having a summer school or would like to announce club
information/activities on the CNCR site, please send to Webmaster Linda
Bryant for posting. She can be easily contacted through a link on
the CNCR website.
You
are reminded to assign a member of your executive to check both your
incoming club email and postal box on a regular basis during the
off-season.
If
your club is actively looking for coaching staff for next season or
advice about contracts and how to properly conduct contract
negotiations, contact Barb Stott at the BC/YT Section Office
(604-205-6960)
And as usual, please feel free to contact me at anytime with club
administration issues, or any questions that are of concern or need
clarification.

Thanks to all those who attended the
SAGM in person and to those who were unable to attend but who sent
their clubs proxy form to me so that I could represent your club.
For those who did not attend, the CNCR Board of Director Report packages
and meeting minutes will be mailed to you.
One important reminder to all clubs…If
you are planning to attend any Region or Section meeting you MUST have
your clubs proxy/delegate formed signed by two officers of your club,
and the ‘delegate’ information filled in. Unfortunately several club
presidents (not from our area) arrived at the meeting without a
completed delegate form and so had to sign in as ‘Observers’….. which
unfortunately meant that their club did not have a vote.
Skaters Lottery-There
were numerous questions raised about the cancelled Sweepstakes. With
regards to the refunding of tickets, we were advised to be patient,
that it will take quite awhile to fully complete but we were assured
that every ticket holder will be contacted either by telephone or by
letter. Contact will be made in the order that clubs remitted their
tickets to Section & chosen Option #2- (Section to contact the ticket
purchasers)
Some club presidents have mentioned
that they cannot find their club copy of the BC/YT Section Membership
Manual…This is a white binder which contains helpful information on a
wide variety of topics, such as ethics, insurance, skater development,
club management, test days, competitions and much, much more. It was
sent free to EVERY club in the province several years ago. It is clearly
stated on the first page that the manual is intended to remain as
property of the club…… NOT of any president or executive member.
So if your clubs manual is missing,
please contact the former president and ask them to return it or if that
fails you can order a second copy from the Section office…however there
will be an approx. $25 charge to replace your copy. Each year the
clubs are sent updated information to insert in their binder…
Cruise Lottery
: The trip was won by Leonard Patterson of Dawson Creek…Congratulations
to him and thanks to every one of you who purchased a ticket. Also
congratulations and thanks to Susan Slater, our hardworking CNCR
fundraising director, who made sure that every ticket was sold, ensuring
maximum benefit to the Region.
All proceeds of CNCR fundraising
efforts go towards Skater Development programs for our Regions’
skaters.
An exciting opportunity for her and
the knowledge she acquires will be a great resource for our region.
We are fast approaching that time of
year when the CNCR will have its Annual General Meeting and election of
officers for the 2006/2007 season.. We are always looking for new

We require a host for next years
Regional Championships & Pacific Skate Qualifying competition and also

Jan. and March 2007....Dates to be determined by BC Section in mid Feb.
Please discuss the possibility of hosting one of these events with your

I’m just home from the CNCR Board meetings with some items of interest to
report.
The Section Voluntary Donation Motion Passed:
Unfortunately not all of the other area clubs were as attentive as the
South Area clubs were in remitting their proxies as requested. Only one
of our South Area clubs neglected to submit their proxy. And so while
Val fought the good fight and cast those proxy votes that she did
receive in the manner requested by the clubs, the motion did pass at the
Sections AGM.
Hopefully each club will now realize just how important and in fact,
critical their proxy vote is..
Speaking of Proxy/Delegate forms. The only forms we have received for
the Skate Canada AGM is from Mackenzie and I understand that the Spruce
City FSC is sending a delegate to attend the National meetings.
We would appreciate the other clubs looking through your mail to find your
Proxy. It is club specific and numbered. Audrey Heffell is
attending the AGM so please sign your clubs form, leave the Delegate and
Proxy designate names blankk and fax to Audrey (563-5806) who
will carry your proxy or delegate designation.
The Section Voluntary Donation is $7 per ‘skating’ member. I realize
this seems like a lot when you are planning your registration fees but
do keep in mind that the Skate Canada registration fees have been frozen
at $14 for over 8 years. Most other sports organizations are
currently charging up to $30.
Two dollars of this fee will return to the Regions to be used towards
Skater Developmental Programs

Not many of our South

there will be a more balanced nominee representation from all
area’s of the Region. I
know of many skaters deserving of such recognition.
It really was a very
difficult choice this year. And we were pleased to note that the
majority of award nomination submissions were much better prepared and
documented than in past years. There were a few who neglected to include
letters of recommendation and support for their nominee which in the end
did make a difference.
And unfortunately, there
were a couple of nominations submitted after the deadline.
The Region will soon
announce the very worthy and commendable award recipient’s.
All athletes love to see
their accomplishments recognized publicly and why not?….they’ve worked
really hard all year to achieve their goal.
If your club has test
day results that you would like to see posted on our website, please
have your parents sign the consent form and remit test results to our
Webmaster Linda Bryant.
She can be easily
contacted through a link on the website.
Also, a reminder that
all submissions for test days (including the initial lists) are
to be submitted ONLY by the club’s test chairperson. Apparently some
test lists have been emailed to the host club by coaches. That is
definitely NOT permissible.
The proper procedure is
for the coach to advise their own club test chairman of any tests they
wish their students to try and their test chair will then submit the
clubs tentative test list the host club. Pulls are also only permitted
through the club test chairman.
When planning your
clubs’ annual carnival or pop concert, you must first have your sanction

EXCEPTIONS. Val tells me that she has received NO nominations at all
from any of the CNCR clubs!! I’m sure this must just be an
oversite as I know for a fact that there are many worthy and very
deserving candidates in each of your clubs. Each club was sent a package
advising of several awards available at both the Region and Section
levels. That package also included guidelines and suggestions to
help with your submissions and you might also want to have a look at the
Awards item on page 12 in the ‘Caribooster’.
Our Region Website
is getting a lot of attention lately as more and more of our members
have found it to be a wealth of information. In the very recent past it
was only the club president and executive members who had access to
incoming information. Due to the internet that is no longer the case.
Every member of every club now has the opportunity to educate themselves
regarding the various aspects of figure skating. Even the ‘Caribooster’
is available on line. The CNCR site has loads of information about
the numerous programs available. You can download announcements and
competitions registration forms. Competition schedules and event

Looking for a test
day to attend ? Check the website for test dates and locations.
And remember if your club has received permission to hold a
low/intermediate test day, you should try to book enough ice to invite

-Congratulations to
Ashlee Machuik of Quesnel who was chosen to be the new CNCR Athletes Rep
-Clubs are reminded

-The number of ‘high’
level competitions allotted to our region and where they will be
scheduled
was discussed.
Williston Skate will always be “high“ and located in the Central area in
October.
Elaine Nustad, Judges
Training Director, spoke about the very serious shortage of judges that
the CNCRegion is currently facing.
To summarize: Our
region only has 15 qualified judges to service this huge region from Wms
Lake, north to Dawson Creek and Ft Nelson and west to Prince Rupert. Of
those, there are just two High judges, 6 intermediate and 7 primary
level judges. Of these there are some who refuse to travel outside their
home community, several have very young family’s and find it difficult
to get away often and there are a few who only accept invitations to
judge at one or two competitions &/or test dates during the season. Our
region has 5 competitions each year,
4 High test days and we
receive approx. 40 requests for low/intermediate club test days.
If we aren’t able to
increase the numbers of judges, then more and more testing requests will
be refused. Unfortunately it has already started…… One or two judges
just can’t do it all.
Clubs are asked to keep
in mind that when a judge agrees to go to your competition or test day
that they are giving up not only their personal time but at least one
days wages. They aren’t paid for judging so they are in effect donating
those lost wages. Judges with young children must rely on family &
friends to watch their children while they volunteer to help yours.
We have been fortunate
over the years to have had several retired coast judges available to
help us out but they too are getting tired, burnt out and ready to
retire from judging as well..
So please ask around
your club, talk to any parents who are former skaters or to some of your
more senior skaters. Encourage them to get involved. We desperately need
recruits.
So we are sharing this
problem with all of you.. If we are successful then we may avert a
looming crisis. If not then I’m afraid the skaters of tomorrow
will have to face the consequences.
The region is planning a
Juvenile clinic for January or February if there is enough
interest
