Skate Yorkton was lucky to be able to present special guest skaters Annabelle Langlois and Cody Hay at the recent Fairytales and Dreams skate carnival. The duo, former Canadian Pairs champions, two-time Olympians, and eight time Canadian national medalists dazzled skating fans with two performances on the ice.
Langlois, who retired from competitive skating after the 2010 winter Olympics in Vancouver and skated twice on The Battle of the Blades will return for Season 3 to give another energetic and competitive performance.
Skating together since 2005, Langlois and Hay won the 2008 Canadian Pairs title and secured a berth on the Canadian Olympic team in 2010.
Langlois and Hay are currently engaged to be married and plan to move to Calgary following Season 3 of The Battle of the Blades where they intend to take up coaching.
Langlois says she and Hay enjoyed travelling to Yorkton for their first time. They have been to Saskatchewan many times, but their first time in Yorkton. "This is a very lovely city," she closes.
Hay thanks everyone in Yorkton and the Yorkton Skating Club for treating them so well. "Good Luck to all the kids. They've got a great club going here," he closes.
