Our Coaches
Renee Gustavson

2018 ended on a solemn note.
Our coach Renee Gustavson lost her long and personal battle with Cancer. Supported by her close and loving family, Renee died late in the day on 5-Dec-2018.
Logan City Skate Around offers deepest sympathies to her family, particularly to her daughter who must now grow up without her loving mother.
Renee was an Inaugural member of our Club, having been closely involved from the very first day. Renee’s legacy will not quickly be lost, as so many of our now senior skaters had their first lessons from Renee, in the old warehouse where the Club had it’s true genesis.
