A
Little History
After
construction of the present arena, spearheaded by Halvor Reise,
H.T. Langlie, Bill Howe, Dick Kroll, Bill Kemp,
Larry Dow and the Bemidji Women's Federated Club, in
1967 the
Bemidji
Figure Skating Club
was officially set up.
Helen Reise was very instrumental in organizing the club as we know it
today. The original board of governors were Helen Reise, Doris
McClellan, June Blackburn, Nina Thompson, Eileen
Morlan, Bette Howe, Wanda Odegard, Carol Waughtal and
Marion Nelson.
Beginning in 1970, the Basic Test Program was started with some 3500
skaters being trained through the program to date. Most of these
skaters, at one time or another, have been stars in the annual
Fantasy on Ice
productions held at the
Bemidji State University arena
since 1984.
