The cost is $20 per year (July 1-June 30). The club will provide a free ticket to the Spring Show for each Friend of GFSC, so the membership pays for itself! This is a great option for Learn to Skate or Academy members who want to hear about and participate in club social events, but aren’t ready to join
a club yet, as well as friends and family of club members who want to stay informed and support the club.
You can sign up to be a Friend of Gardens FSC in one of two ways:
