The Portage Skating Club is hosting a seminar today at the PCU Centre in Portage la Prairie.

PSC Board Member Shawn Cabak says the event has been sponsored by the Portage Co-Op and Sport Manitoba. Cabak outlines the event.

"This seminar is going to be for Star Skaters, which will be split into junior and senior levels. The ages will range anywhere from starting at 6 or 7 years of age, on up to 14 or 15. They will be split according to skill level, so they will be with kids of similar skill and age."

He adds it's a full day of activities and information.

"There will be off ice sessions, consisting of nutrition and healthy living, off ice training and dance, preparing for competition in the Star 1 to 5 program."

Cabak adds lunch will be provided for the skaters, and is included in the cost. If you have any information feel free to contact the Portage Skating Club, or stop by any of their practices during the week.
