The BFSC joined the Canadian Figure Skating Association in 1965. The club is sanctioned by Skate Canada, the sports national body, whose headquarters are in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The club is run by volunteers. Our prime purpose is the encouragement and development of basic, learn-to-skate skills and figure skating in all aspects. We are "dedicated to the principles of enabling every Canadian to participate in skating throughout their lifetime for fun, fitness and/or achievement".

2009 - 2010 Winter School

Registration for the second session of FirstSteps and anyone wishing to register for the second half of the Canskate program are still being accepted.  Any questions, please call Juli McDonald 613-342-8848.
