WHAT IS A PROGRAM?
IT IS A PROGRAM designed to provide instruction to
students (grade levels K-12) on the basic skating
skills in a gym setting at a nominal cost.

THE EQUIPMENT used is a PIC® Rental Skate. This is an
in-line skate designed to replicate ice skates. It is
safe, highly maneuverable, and easy to skate on. The
skate is gym floor safe.

THE GYM SKATE PROGRAM PROVIDES:
1. Use of equipment for 5 or 10 days.
2. A curriculum teachers guide.
3. Delivery and pick up of equipment.
4. Free use of skates for teachers and staff.
5. Skate instructors are available at a modest fee to
aid the physical education staff.
