2015 Showcase Director: Diane Matthews, 970-231-2362, [email protected].
Showcase on Ice Governing Principles:
1. The Showcase Directors reserve the right to move skaters, combine skaters and create
skating numbers as they feel necessary to create the highest quality, most entertaining
show possible.
2. Showcase on Ice is a skating opportunity, but it is also one of the club’s fundraising
opportunities. Please help with volunteer and fundraising opportunities that coincide with
Showcase on Ice to ensure both the success of the show and MFSC operations.
3. Skaters may sign up to perform in a maximum of 4 numbers including solos, step-outs, and
groups. Please be prepared for a potentially quick costume change if you are participating in
the maximum amount of numbers. Every effort will be made to spread out each
participant’s numbers.
4. Skaters may be selected at the Director’s discretion to skate in “transitional” numbers.
Skaters may be asked to perform at any time even spur of the moment if necessary to make
the show flow or to take up time while technical difficulties are worked out. Some of the
transitional numbers are developed at the last minute. For those numbers the Showcase
Directors will choose the skaters in combinations that work best. Transitional number
skaters will be selected based on performance needs for the number not skill or age. There
is no charge for doing transitional numbers.
5. To be eligible for Showcase on Ice, skaters must have no outstanding debt owed to MFSC as
of the Performance and Costume Fee Deadline of MARCH 26th.
