Emily Chang Organizes National Skating Month Event

Emily Chang ’20 led and organized a National Skating Month event on Feb. 3 to promote interest in skating and support U.S. Figure Skating’s annual celebration of the sport. Chang has been skating for over 10 years, competing in both freestyle and ice dance. As a Girl Scout Senior working towards her gold award project wanted to use her passion to attract and inspire new generations of skaters and educate her community of the myriad physical, mental and emotional health benefits that skating has to offer. Chang worked with her Garden State Skating Club and the Howell Ice Arena in Farming dale, NJ, to host a two hour open house event. She recruited club coaches and members to teach half-hour group lessons. Following the free lessons, Chang organized a skating exhibition and had several of her club teammates perform their freestyle programs showcasing their many skills and talents. The skating show was then followed by an hour family skate session to encourage new skaters, young children and family members, to enjoy more skating. The event had a great turn out with more than 55 kids and adults participating in the event and everyone enjoying a fun-filled day at the rink. The event not only increased local awareness and interest in skating but was also a great way to help kick off the 2018 Winter Olympic Games.
