Free Program Notes
It was very cold in the rink and my fingers were almost numb and I had a hard time typing at times, so there may be elements missing. . it doesn’t mean that they weren’t done, just that I didn’t manage to type them in ! Skaters are shown in the order they skated and the mark shown at the end is the points for the free program only. The costume descriptions and/or descriptions of the skaters aren't really meant to describe them to you, but to help me remember who they all are in case of any questions or if I want to go back and look at my notes. . . in other words, they're not always very good
