To our friends and loves ones,
Steve passed away peacefully this morning, with his wife and daughters by his side. In July, he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of multiple myeloma: plasma cell leukemia.
He fought a hard battle and through it all he never stopped talking about ice skating. All the nurses and doctors knew that he was a US Figure Skating Judge, and Legal Child Advocate. He was very proud of the work he did in both the skating and legal community.
All his friends have shown him and us so much support during these months of illness. He would hate to see any of us teary eyed and sad for too long. You all know he loved laughter and a good joke and his sense of humor never left him even at the end.
The best way to show support at this time would be a gift in his name to either organization:
Leukemia & Lymphoma society
Child and Family Advocates of Cuyahoga County
Yes, he’s back! After a long hibernation. Snow Plow Sam is back for clubs to obtain for their functions like competitions. Details on how to obtain Sam are coming soon!
Message from Karen Boswell, Secretary for Tri-State CouncilHello Everyone, It’s time for your skating club to join the Tri-State Council of Figure Skating Clubs. If your club has not been a member, this is the year to discover how the Tri-State interclub council helps support skaters and your club. |

Tri-States every year holds 2 competitions. One is a Freeskating and the other is Synchronized. Here are the two competitions, dates, and locations. Click here for the link to the details of the 2 Competitions |

Tri-State is involved in some wonderful projects that will benefit your club: • Monies for skaters qualifying for National Competitions. Provide merit awards to officials who are members of member clubs. Annual Tri-State Meeting the first weekend in June. More details will be coming. Rental Access to Tri-State Music Equipment for your competitions. Reserve the delightful Snow Plow Sam suit for your own events and competitions for FREE. Snow Plow Sam is clean and will be shelved until it is Covid safe for use at events.

About Tri-States
The Tri-States Council of Figure Skating Clubs is comprised of various figure skating clubs located in the states of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and, as of 1999, Western Pennsylvania.
The Tri-States Council is one of twenty-eight InterClub Councils now recognized by the USFSA and was one of the pioneers in establishing this type of organization. Interchange of ideas and vital figure skating information between the various clubs in this defined area is the prime purpose of our organization, and the Council meets annually to accomplish this purpose.
Today is a GREAT day to Join!
