Northern BC Centre for Skating

The Northern BC Centre for Skating (formerly The Spruce City Skating Club) is an ice skating centre in the city of Prince George, British Columbia, Canada.[1]

The Northern BC Centre for Skating operates year-round ice skating programs.[1] The proposition for a centre for skating excellence in Prince George was finalized in 2012 when Executive Director for Skate Canada BC/YT Section, Ted Barton, officially announced its formation. The Centre was founded primarily by members of the Spruce City Skating Club, in existence since 1977,[2] when they merged with membership from a different club, including several coaches. In 2013 the Club officially changed its name to the Northern BC Centre for Skating.[1]
