Club Education — Improving Today's Clubs for Tomorrow's Athletes

A well-trained club board makes for a successful club. Whether your club has been around for years or it's just been formed, you're in for some interesting situations. Club members don't always click, rules are not always upheld, and the traditiional management techniques don't always work. You'll learn groundbreaking ideas to deal with these issues by attending a U.S. Figure Skating Club Education Seminar.

Seminars are one-day events, lasting from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. The fee is $75 per person or $250 per board of four or more members. The fee includes all materials, lunch and afternoon break. Topics include:

• Governance
• Legal and ethical responsibilities
• How to recruit and retain volunteers
• Risk management
• Volunteering
• Board development and education
• Fiscal management
• Strategic thinking
• Rink relations
• How to grow and retain members
• Programming and special events
• And special focus this year on FUNDRAISING
