Skating Credits
Skating credits (termed Gift Certificates on registration website) may also be generated due to overpayment of invoices. Skating credits/gift certificates can be redeemed by the member at the point of program registration.
Skate Canada Membership Fee Policy
The annual (September 1st to August 31st) Skate Canada Membership Fee is per skater (not per family) and is paid at the time of the first registration in the program year. Once submitted, it is not refundable for any reason. Out of club skaters must provide proof of current Skate Canada Membership at time of registration.
Zorra Skating Club collects and remits this fee directly to Skate Canada

Program Transfers
While program withdrawals are not permitted after session start, a skater MAY transfer from one program to another in the middle of a program season, when changing skating categories: for example from CanSkate to a Junior session upon qualification changes. A skater may also transfer between equivalent programs once per season for scheduling purposes IF there is room on the desired session. Invoices will be issued for program fee changes.
