Cranberry Open and International

[sk9tingfan]

I sent an email to the events staff at SCOB about whether or not spectators are welcome at the upcoming Cranberry Open and International Events. The answer is yes as long as the State of Massachusetts does not change its current policies due to the pandemic. Ticket information will be made available out on the SCOB website at the end of the month.

Are the tickets refundable?

I have no idea. I tend to doubt if they would sell tickets in advance, although I may be wrong.

 

[AxelAnnie]

I have no idea

Not a good deal of certainty in their answer, which understandable.........it is an uncertain time.
If I were going to buy tickets, I would have to be sure
I didn't mind if I did not get to see the event that I did not care about the money.

I did not ask them your question.

Cranberry Open and Cranberry Cup International – The Skating Club of Boston

Sounds like this is going to be a great even based on the comment about registrants.

 

[Frau Muller]

Do we know if Starr Andrews will be competing at Cranberry? Hope so. I’m banking on a breakthrough for her ASAP.

I've cross referenced with Sylvia's post in https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/threads/u-s-women-1-the-contenders-unmask-themselves.108436/ ,that Alysa, Mariah and Bradie will be at the event in the latest US Ladies' thread.

Just saw this on Twitter ... excited that Tarasova/Morozov will be there, plus the 2 top American teams. (Hope no one withdraws! )

@clairecloutier are you planing on attending? I'm thinking of going, but I will likely have to bring baby Oleada with me for some events and I have conflicting event Saturday.

If you are thinking of going, if you need a hotel room, there may not be many available. I found one about 8 miles away from the rink, and it was expensive. I would reserve one just in case and then cancel it if you decide not to go.

I live less than 15 minutes from the Norwood SCOB So that's not a concern. It's more a childcare issue during the week!

 

[Coco]

Keep an eye on any announcements about crowd limitations, etc It seems that the situation is changing somewhat rapidly, or perhaps it's more correct to say that governments are changing their public health directives somewhat rapidly.

Lucky you. For me, it's an hour and 45 minute car ride; not bad at all.

Yes, I am planning to be there Thurs-Sun. Hope to see you, baby Oleada, and any other FSUers who attend!!

Bradie withdrew.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

What does “hold for Cranberry Cup” mean on the schedule? Ice dance? If attendance is open, I am going to try! I’m also an hour and 45 minutes away but I don’t have hotel money right now so I’d be driving in. (Although I know a lot of people in that area. I should poke around.) It’s a question of family obligations. But I am hopeful!

ETA: Cranberry Cup basically means the international? Schedule is befuddling. Lol.

Yes, Cranberry Cup is the international portion. If you are able to go, I would think it would be awesome to attend. It’s like a mini-nationals plus a few bonuses and WAY cheaper than attending Nationals. I am jealous! At least they have a live stream.

 

[Karen-W]

Well, Calalang/Johnson are on the competitor list for this event.

 

[Frau Muller]

Well, Calalang/Johnson are on the competitor list for this event.

Cranberry will include every top US Sr pair + Tarasova/ Morozov (+, as a bonus, Krasnopolski with Partner of the Month).

 

[mackiecat]

Maddie Schizas in Sr Women!

 

[clairecloutier]

Great lineup in ladies and pairs especially. Of the international entrants, I'm excited to see Young You and Tarasova/Morozov. And it will be nice to see Bychenko again too.

 

[Rukia]

The most important name on this list is obviously Donovan Carrillo. I'll be tuning in for sure.

Hmm. Tickets are still not on sale. I’m getting nervous. I’m thinking of flying all the way from SoCal for this. They better not ban spectators last minute…

Most likely, tickets will only be sold on site, no presale. That's usually how the SLC Challenger event was run. But yes, with the C19 situation rapidly changing, there could be changes in rules. Not sure I'd make travel plans, unless they were fully refundable.
