By: Anne Raucci, Skating School Director

The Franklin Park Ice Arena celebrated its 50th Anniversary with the “Franklin’s Favorites” Ice Show, featuring flashbacks from past shows. A total of 102 skaters, including 25 soloists, performed routines suited to their skill levels.

Rehearsals began in March, reflecting the dedication of skaters, parents, and staff. The event highlighted the strong skating community, with a special reunion photo and a slideshow of photos from past skaters. We also honored graduating seniors, Caitlin Ude and Brad Jacobson, for their significant contributions. Thank you to everyone who helped make this milestone event possible!
