  • Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year!

    My son Nathan is having a fantastic time and my husband and I have been extremely impressed with your program and your instructors. We feel that Nathan’s skating and hockey skills are being challenged in an age-appropriate way.

    Thanks to you and your staff for making our first hockey experience so positive. We are looking forward to Nathan’s continued involvement with the USS next fall if not over the summer. We also hope that his younger sister and brother will love skating one day as much as he does.
