2024 Point of Perfection Camp Dates
June 23-28
St Olaf College, Northfield, MN
2024 Guest coaching staff to be announced soon!
Registration will open February 1, 2024
Is P.O.P. CAMP right for you?
At minimum skaters must be able to perform basic skating elements which includes forward and backward edges, turns, and ½ rotation jump (waltz jump, ½ flip, ½, lutz) Successful campers demonstrate independence at home, such as being able to take a shower and wash their own hair, get themselves dressed, etc. Counselors assist young skaters with everything they need, but skaters must be able to handle the basics
What is the best age to attend P.O.P. CAMP?
P.O.P. offers sessions for skaters ranging in age from 8 to 18 years old. Depending on the skater’s level and interest, they usually start attending camp between the ages of 8-10. Of course, you know your skater best and know whether they are ready for an active and challenging camp experience. (For ages 6-7 or over 18, please contact our camp manager at yackelb@comcast.net)

A Tribute From Dan
Dear Barb:
Congratulations on 20 years of Point of Perfection Camp. It has been my privilege to be a part of each camp and Riedell Skate Co. Is honored that you have allowed us to be part of such a great camp.
Each year seems to be an improvement over the previous year and I am sure that every skater takes away an increased awareness of not only themselves in a personal growth aspect but as athletes with a renewed sense of commitment.
You and your outstanding P.O.P. staff have provided each skater with a wonderful ability to grow as people and as skaters. I’m sure that every camp attendee has gone home each year with a renewed energy for the sport of ice skating.
Thank you for being such an inspiration to the skaters and for your wonderful promotion of skating.

Lynn Wick , Pequot Lakes, MN
POP camp was a game-changer for our daughter. Savannah attended the first year she was able to, when she was 8. She came home a completely different skater! The staff coaches are amazing, and they do a great job of bringing in a variety of guest coaches that help skaters with all different aspects of the sport, Savannah has made many friends at camp, and enjoys seeing them at local competitions throughout the year. We can’t recommend the camp highly enough!

“We look forward to P.O.P every year! The activities on the ice push Lydia outside her comfort zone. Every year she has tried something new and LOVED it! I appreciate the detailed, one on one coaching and encouragement Lydia receives from each coach all week. All the coaches bring creativity, knowledge and a whole lot of fun to the ice! Point of Perfection is our favorite skating camp of the year!”
Samantha Schaefer, Mitchell SD
We chose to do P.O.P. camp because we did weekend camps with Barb, where Suttyn learned so many things! She not only built skills but her confidence. Everyone told us how fun this camp was and Suttyn has been asking for months now to go. She said she is excited to learn new skills and build new friendships!
