INDIANAPOLIS — The Winter Club of Indianapolis is welcoming around 200 people back to the ice.

The club hosted its fourth annual kickoff event Sunday, Sept. 24 at the Pop Weaver Youth Pavilion at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

The Winter Club aims to introduce skating to the Indianapolis community and offers lessons to skaters of all ages and skill levels.

Michelle Study-Campbell, the president of the board of directors for the Winter Club of Indianapolis, said lessons from skating also serve as life lessons.

"Our motto in figure skating is we get up," Study-Campbell said. "This is a sport where you will fall 1,000 times, and you learn to get back up and push forward. It is a skill you'll carry with you for the rest of your life."

If you're interested in learning to skate, group classes are starting this week. You can sign up at the program's website.
