"We do offer discounted membership
rates now, which has been a really big
winning situation for our hockey fami-
lies," said Lybarger. "The thought is, well,
if I join this, I get a discount and while
my kid is on the ice I can go to a class
or workout. Our membership has a free
child watch for kids up to (age) 12, so a
parent can check them in for 90 minutes
and go do their thing.
"Kids are on the ice so frequently, like
most hockey families 5-6 days a week, it's
a tremendous opportunity."
Lybarger said the expansion from just
hockey to multipurpose has also brought
in additional hockey families. Member
families are able to add on ice skating
for $25 per month. Right now Lybarger
said they are averaging 25-30 participants
between the ages of 3-6.
"In two years, we have graduated 15
kids, boys and girls, into hockey pro-
grams," he said. "We have a handful of
kids on the skating track and they want to
continue recreationally.
"Each year that goes by, we are finding
out we can do more and more for our
community, and that's exciting." J
"IT HAS HAD SUCH A
MEANINGFUL IMPACT
ON CROSS-TRAINING
FOR THOSE HOCKEY
TEAMS. NOW THEY
NOT ONLY HAVE THE
ON-ICE ACTIVITIES,
BUT THERE ARE
SEVERAL OFF-ICE
OPTIONS AND A
VARIETY OF THINGS
AVAILABLE TO THEM."
