Cheryl Douglas, a sophomore at Palos Verdes High School, teamed up with Tara Innab, a sophomore at Peninsula High School to sponsor a figure skating event for the "little ladies" of The Port Boys and Girls Club. Cheryl is a 3 time Junior National figure skater, and a 3 time member of the Senior National Championship Los Angeles Ice Theater team. Tara is also a 3 time member of the Senior National Champions Los Angeles Ice Theater team. Both girls share a love for the sport of figure skating and wanted to enable the little gals of The Port to be able to experience this joy. Cheryl and Tara solicited funds and donations and sold raffle tickets at the Farmers Market and around their neighborhood in order to raise $2000. This allowed them to privately rent out the Ice Chalet rink, buy dinner for all, and supply each little lady with a back pack and school supplies. All of the kids including Cheryl and Tara thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The two girls are already planning next years event!
