RENEWING MEMBERS: ALL Learn to Skate and Advanced members renew their memberships in EntryEeze for the upcoming year starting with Summer session registration. See About Membership for all membership types and fees. If your child has never skated with the Bismarck Figure Skating Club and wants to take lessons, read the instructions below before proceeding.
How to Join Our Club
(If your child is not a member of another club, follow the instructions below. If your child is an Advanced-level skater of another club and wants to just skate as a guest with our club, see our Associate and Walk-On memberships and contact us for more information.)
A. Go to EntryEeze
1. Go to our club’s “EntryEeze” membership system: EntryEeze
2. Click on “Apply for Membership” and then “Create a new family account” (or log into your account if you already have a previous family account) and follow all the instructions to set up your child’s account. (New Learn to Skate members, leave the “USFS #” blank.) Fill in all required information and fields. You will have ONE family account for all the skaters in your family. See About Membership to determine each membership type.
3. Check your email for a request from EntryEeze for you to validate your email address and set up your password. Follow those instructions.
4. Purchase the membership; be sure to complete the payment process. EntryEeze needs to recognize the membership as current (“paid up”) before you can register for ice time or lessons.

1. In EntryEeze, after you’ve processed payment for your BFSC membership, click on “Return to home page.”
2. Click on “Contract Ice > Browse and Purchase” button at the top.
3. If you have more than one skater, choose the skater you’re signing up.

All our members are required to be members of both U.S. Figure Skating (USFS) and the Bismarck Figure Skating Club (BFSC). For beginning skaters, the USFS curriculum is called “Learn to Skate,” and BFSC follows the same curriculum.
Skaters progress through levels into the Advanced program, where they must have a private coach; BFSC has several coaches to choose from; contact us at president@bismarckfigureskatingclub.com for more information. Registration fees for USFS and BFSC are separate.
We use this website for information about our club and programs. We use the EntryEeze website to manage our club’s memberships, renewals, test levels, lesson registrations, session rosters, financial reporting, and more. U.S. Figure Skating’s website is http://www.usfsa.org, while the site for beginner skaters is LearntoSkateUSA.com.
