Theater on Ice

Did you or your skater LOVE the ice show? In the Spring, we are looking to introduce performance teams!!!! These groups will perform at things like open skates Bison Games, and potentially even prepare for some competitions! Based on interest, the coaches have developed the following options:

  • Bloomington Pops (JAM Members and Full Members who are Basic Skills competition levels) - Tuesday's through the BIC 5-5:30 starting in January; Performs for Open Skate, and may perform for Bloomington Competition and for our Summer Exhibition! Sign up will be through BIC (register here).

  • Production Teams (Full Members Aspire 1 and above) - The groups will be determined based on the levels of the skates that sign up, and could change to support multiple groups throughout the season. We expect the following performance opportunities, and the ability for skaters to sign up for 1, 2 or 3 sessions. Registration for all sessions closes 1/26, so that we can order T-Shirts for the team. Register here today!
