Club Skating & Membership Fees 2025-2026

Club Membership Dues - $50 (tax-deductible as allowed by law). All skaters (other than drop-ins) must be members of the BSC. The $50 per person membership dues are separate from the skating fees and must be paid in full at the time of registration.

Skaters have the option of paying their skating fees in full or with three separate payments. If choosing the three payment option, the first payment is due by September 13, 2025, the second payment by November 1, 2025, and the third payment by January 3, 2026. The three payment option is only available if payment is received prior to or on the start dates of the season, and only if skating the entire season. The amounts of the three payment options are contained in parentheses next to the full payment amount for each skating category.

If joining after the season begins, the cost will be calculated based on the number of skating sessions left, and payment must be received in full. Skaters must also be members of US SPEEDSKATING - www.USspeedskating.org

All skating fees receive a $30.00 discount if paid in full by September 13.

Please note that your payment and all forms must be received before you can skate.
