Patrick Chan Ready to skate for a cause
Randy Starkman’s Olympics Blog
Toronto Figure skater Patrick Chan felt pretty helpless watching the earthquakes in Japan and worrying about friends he has on and off the ice there.
On Saturday night at 7 p.m., he will try to do his part to help out when he skates in Oshawa Skating Club’s Ice Show at the GM Centre in Oshawa. This will be the last public appearance for the reigning ISU Grand Prix champion before the world championships in Moscow beginning April 24.
Find tickets here.

Thank you Patrick for making the OSC Carnival a very special event for me. I am only 9 and it is nice to see professional skaters like yourself and Mr Jackson offer to spend time with kids like us who are just beginning our skating journeys. It’s people like you who inspire us to keep going. Thank you.
I was impressed as a Japanese to hear this news.
I thank for your action heartily.
