Apply Today to Become a Member of the Bend Ice FSC
Becoming a member of the Bend Ice Figure Skating Club (BIFSC) connects you with a supportive community of skaters ranging in age from 6 to 80. Our vibrant community is filled with youth and includes a growing number of adults, all of whom have a passion for challenging themselves on the ice and connecting with others who also find deep joy in skating. Membership also connects you with the organizations that govern and support figure skating and Learn to Skate programming at the local and national levels.
Note that Club Membership does not include ice time! Ice time is included with club programming and must be purchased in order to skate during club ice times. Please visit our USFS Programming or Development Academy pages for pricing and links to register.
