**Exception for SnowPlow Sam Classes (Ages 6 & under): The introductory Snowplow Sam 1 class is a parent/child class. 

If a parent or other caretaker is not able to accompany the child on the ice please let us know as we have assistants available.  Snowplow Sam levels 2 and above do not require a parent on to accompany the child on the ice. 

All Snowplow Sam classes are 25 minutes in duration with a certified Learn to Skate USA Coach.  Snowplow classes do not include 25 minutes of practice ice, however practice ice can be purchased separately by contacting us.  The reduced ice time is reflected in the class cost.
