Red Deer Lions Speed Skating Club to host annual short track meet
The Red Deer Lions Speed Skating Club is inviting the public to attend its annual short track meet.
The competition, which began in 1953, goes from 9-4 on Nov. 2 at the north rink of the G.H. Dawe Centre.
Kari Klywak, the club’s secretary, says the event is a great one for people to come watch if they’re thinking speed skating could be something they want to take up.
“We also do open try nights during our practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays, at the Dawe starting at 5:45. It’s not something you see every day,” she says.
