We would love to see you all at our PTA sponsored SKATE NIGHT at the North Olmsted Recreation Center on Sunday, March 9th from 3:15 - 5:15pm. Make sure to click on the button to sign up and let us know if you are bringing skates as there are ONLY about 250 pairs of skates for rental and we will have to cap off the event so not to run out of skates.
