Kevin Caron wrapped up a successful season, placing first and third respectively in the pre-novice men’s short and long program events.
Teneil Caron placed first in the silver interpretive, 11th in pre-novice short group two and 12th in pre-novice ladies long group one.

These results follow on the heels of the biggest competition of the year for the club.

Highlights include Samantha Jarvis, who came home with three gold medals, and Rachel Pettitt, with two gold and two bronze.
In between these two events skaters prepared for and performed for judges at the year-end test day.
