NGB News USA Hockey & U.S. Figure Skating , Hockey Week Across America celebrates its 13th year of existence this February. Created by USA Hockey in 2008 to engage the hockey community in celebrating the sport at all levels and exposing the game to new audiences, this year's 2020 event is planned for February 16-23. The week includes daily themes to celebrate the many aspects of the sport, as well as special TV and radio appearances. 40 / NOVEMBER.DECEMBER.2019 USICERINKS.COM Mark Your Calendar for 2020 Hockey Week Across America , This January, we invite you to 'Discover the Magic of Skating' with 2020 National Skating Month! National Skating Month is an opportunity for rinks, clubs and programs to celebrate skating and invite new families to the ice by offering free lessons, skating demonstrations and open house events. This year's theme is Discover the Magic of Skating. Everyone is encouraged to plan energetic, family-friendly events that showcase the inspiring qualities of ice skating. This year's kit is designed to help you give all participants a fun and rewarding experience that will have them excited to return to the rink! With January still a couple of months away, we want to give you ample opportunity to plan your event. Rather than asking for event details now, we encourage you to purchase your kit and spend the next few weeks planning the logistics of your open house. We are here to help you with this process and will be sending all kit-purchasers tips, resources and on-demand training videos to ensure that your event is the best that it can be. Then, once kits are prepared and ready for distribution, we will circle back to learn more about your event(s) and assist you with your marketing efforts. The size, scope and frequency of National Skating Month events are at the discretion of the host organization. We recommend reserving at least one kit per event. Each $40 kit contains an official National Skating Month poster, themed marketing materials, downloadable event resources, numerous giveaway items, National Skating Month skills cards and other fun activities to enhance your event. Sign up while supplies last. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Susi Wehrli McLaughlin at swehrli@usfigureskating.org.
