• A test passed, i.e. "Suzi passed her Pre-Prelim moves!"

• An award received, i.e. "Cassie was inducted into the Jr. Honor Society at Buffalo Middle School"
• Or anything you feel is worth noting!
These Kudos forms can be filled out by parents (about their children or about their child's coach), or by coaches about their students or their fellow coaches.
Feel free to submit a photo of the skater as well! You may e-mail a digital photo to the ASC Office at info@amherstskatingclub.org (preferred), or attach a photo to the Kudos form to be scanned.
