2nd Annual Skating with Santa
Know Before You Go!

• Children must be accompanied by an adult to attend. Please plan to stay on-site and inside the building for the duration of the event.
• A Waiver & Release form must be completed by a parent or guardian. 
  • If someone else is bringing your child to the event, a parent or guardian needs to sign the form in advance.
• We are in the Gardens Rink at the St. Clair Shores Civic Arena this year (different from last year -- same building, different rink).
  • Look for this sign to find the entrance for the event!
    
    
• Dress in layers including hats and gloves.
• If you have your own skates, please bring them. There will be skates available for rent (at no cost) if you don’t have your own; please remember we’ll have to take turns so all kids can have an opportunity to skate.
• Please consider bringing a helmet for safe skating.
• Bring your appetite! We will have slices of Mr. C's cheese and pepperoni pizza available (also at no cost) along with hot cocoa and water
• Pack your patience! There are lots of kids signed up to attend this event and the arena also has another event going on in the adjacent rink. The parking lot and lobby area will be crowded!
• Make sure your child grabs a Santa hat on the way in and a goodie bag filled with festive favors from our event sponsors on the way out.
• A mobile phone number is required to have photo booth pictures sent to you. If your child doesn’t know your phone number, please accompany them to the photo booth.
  • If you do not have a mobile phone, please ask a volunteer to provide theirs so photos can be shared with you in a different fashion.
• Reminder: We are collecting books to donate to area schools! Donations are appreciated, but not required.
• Finally, don't forget to thank our generous sponsors next time you see them!
