NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE. NO LATE REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER THIS DEADLINE.

A skater may not reenter even if the withdrawal occurs prior to the entry deadline on September 1, 2011. *If you need to withdraw, you must send an email to Pamela Crowley at [email protected], with your name, U.S. Figure Skating membership number, event in which you were entered (i.e. junior ladies) and the competition from which you wish to withdraw.
