HOLLYWOOD | JULY 1. Each year, thousands of hopefuls flock to Hollywood, dreaming of making it big in the film and television business. This year, Hollywood comes to them.

Camp Freeze offers comprehensive instruction for skaters of all ability levels. Our supportive coaching staff introduces campers to the fun and fundamentals of skating, whether you want to figure skate, play hockey or just enjoy the coolest sport in the world. Camp is open to boys and girls ages 5-18. The cost of Camp Freeze is $150 per week.
