Arctic temps and high winds couldn’t stop these Kids On Ice! ❄️⛸️ KOI coaches & @skatecanalparkdc showed up big—games, skills clinics, girls-only hockey, hot cocoa from @dunkin, and nonstop good vibes. No place we’d rather be than the ice 💙
We met @ovi8
This was a great experience for Kids On Ice skaters!
Thanks @capitals and @giantfood for inviting us to enjoy some Ovi’s Great Crunch with the legend himself!
GOOOOOO CAPS!!!
FFDIA's Board repeatedly warned the District about flaws in the design. This email is just one example where FFDIA, relying on its Board’s expertise in managing community ice rinks, tried to get the District to include FFDIA in the process in a meaningful way. It never happened.
On 2/3, we'll skate in solidarity with the US figure skating community and in remembrance of those whose lives were lost in this tragedy. All are invited to come together with us to support one another as we grieve, honor, and celebrate the strength of the skating community.
FFDIA grieves with WFSC, USFS and our wider community. American Airlines Flight 5342 carried young athletes, their families, and their coaches home from the National Development Camp. Some were from the local DMV area.
KOI® programs provide opportunities for the youth, to learn the fundamental skills in skating and life. Please donate today to facilitate another year packed with KOI® programs and activities -- before time runs out! On behalf of all of us we thank you for your generous support.
Special thanks to Tucker Road Ice Rink for welcoming us into their rink to hold some school skate for fitness sessions while our outdoor location was out of commission. We loved every minute of it. And a big thank you to the Washington Capitals for providing transportation!
Thanks to the generous support of our committed community, we have a Giving Tuesday victory to celebrate! We raised more than $20,000 to further our mission "Thank you" to all of our donors who made Giving Tuesday a success.
Giving Tuesday is an important day for Kids On Ice® and it is our chance to make many more dreams come true. Thank you for joining me in support of our Kids On Ice with a donation on Giving Tuesday!
As 2024 comes to a close, we want to thank you for your support and commitment to Fort Dupont Ice Arena’s (FDIA) mission of lifting up Washington, DC-area kids and their families through ice skating sports and educational programs in the heart of our nation’s capital.
Hi! My name is Hugo Janos, and I'm a volunteer junior coach for Kids On Ice®.
KOI® coaches help me to develop my self-esteem and confidence, I do the same for the kids I help to coach. Donating today can help kids like me develop leadership skills while on and off the ice.
Happy Giving Tuesday! Today, you have a role to play, too – as a Friend of FDIA! Please show your support for expanding access to ice skating by donating today, and help us reach our $7,500 matched Giving Tuesday goal!
Your donation this Giving Tuesday will help to ensure that the next generation of skaters have the same opportunities. Please donate today to help us meet our $7500 donor match and give more kids the opportunity to reach their full potential, both on and off the ice!
