Welcome to our Parks Ice Sports page! This is the place where we share updates, sponsorship opportunities, and the story behind our family’s ice sports journey.

This year, two of our children are pursuing ice sports: Kateri in figure skating and Ignatius in hockey. Both have worked hard, shown real dedication, and grown so much through their time on the ice.

As a large Catholic homeschooling family, we are doing our best to support their goals while being responsible with our family budget. Sponsorships and donations help make lessons, practices, equipment, registration fees, competitions, and hockey costs more manageable.

Meet the Athletes

Kateri — Figure Skating

Kateri began figure skating in 2026 and quickly fell in love with the sport. She is working hard on skating skills, spins, jumps, and preparing for future testing and competitions.

Ignatius — Hockey

Ignatius started hockey in 2026 and immediately showed enthusiasm, focus, and a strong desire to improve. He is working toward joining recreational hockey and continuing to build his skating and stick-handling skills.
