ACTISA is the governing body for figure-skating, ice-dancing, ice theatre and synchronised skating in the ACT. Also serves as only skating club in #Canberra.
Thank you all for your support. The local MP, Victor Dominello, has put together another petition which he will present to the AMP. Please consider signing if you wish to support Macquarie Ice Rink.

Meanwhile ice sports enthusiasts in #Canberra, the Australian capital city, share just one sheet of ice and decrepit facilities. Bring on a @NatIceSportsCen. Figure skating is a year-round, all-weather, all-ages form of exercise & enjoyment, and a sport as well as an art form ⛸
Macquarie Ice Rink is the only rink that serves North-North East Sydney (including the North Shore and Northern Beaches), and the Hills region. Losing this rink would really hurt the growth of ice sports in Sydney.
With all of the recent successes of our National Squad, figure skating is really taking off in Australia. So many World & Olympic team members train out of Macquarie & it would be devastating to so many if the rink was closed. Please sign the petition!

We need a fair comp track like this that limits which elements (esp. jumps) sk8rs may & may not include by level. Under @IceSkatingAUS rules Prelim div can incl sk8rs w/ a shaky Lutz & no Axel to compete against those performing seamless doubles.🤨 https://t.co/4Vgr3Q7H8o
