There will also be a 1-hour skate with Jordan Stolz where kids can get ice time and do laps with the local Olympic racer. According to Dirk Stolz, the Pettit will provide hockey skates for the ice time.
“We started as a family, all four of us, skating around on the pond,” said Dirk Stolz. “We all did it as a family for exercise and the kids were racing me.”
Stolz said it is a “good family sport.”
“Everybody can do it,” he said. “It doesn’t matter what age you are. A few more people should come out and give it a try like we did.”
