The club skated at the Winter Garden Ice Rink located at 520 DeBaliviere, at the corner of DeBaliviere and Kingsbury Avenues. The building was razed in 1962, forcing the club to move to other area rinks including the Winterland Ice Rink and Castle Oak Ice Rink. 1976 – Castle Oak Figure Skating ClubIn 1976, St. Louis SC found a new home at the ice rink at Castle Oak Country Club located at I-270 and I-40 – currently the Chesterfield Athletic Club attached to a DoubleTree Hotel. In order to call this rink home, the facility asked that the club change its name to match the club. St. Louis SC was officially changed to the Castle Oak FSC. However, the arrangement was short-lived, as the club looked for a new home and the name reverted in 1978. 1979 - Gateway/St. Louis Figure Skating ClubSt. Louis SC and Gateway FSC merged in 1979. Gateway FSC of MO was headquartered at the Brentwood Ice Arena at the time the clubs merged and remained there. 1987 - Brentwood Figure Skating ClubIn 1987, after a request by the mayor of the city of Brentwood, the club changed its name to match the facility. This agreement remained in place for 10 years. 1997 - St. Louis Skating ClubIn 1997, after a change in city mayor and facility staff at the Brentwood Ice Arena, the club was able to change its name back to St. Louis Skating Club. Club mergersThroughout its history, two clubs have been known to have merged with St. Louis Skating Club. Wintergarden FSC / Forest Park FSC / Gateway FSC of MissouriThe Wintergarden Figure Skating Club's inaugural season was 1947–48 with 46 members. The club skated at the Winter Garden Ice Arena along with the St. Louis Skating Club. Mary Abele was their membership contact. At first, the formation of a second club significantly impacted the membership of SLSC. Eventually, many skaters were members of both in order to utilize the ice time available by both organizations. The Wintergarden FSC changed its name to Forest Park FSC in 1956. The club moved to Steinberg Skating Rink immediately after it was built in November 1957. The club left Steinberg in 1961 and immediately changed its name to "Gateway Figure Skating Club of Missouri". Gateway Figure Skating Club of Missouri was incorporated in the state of Missouri on October 26, 1961.[2] The club was headquartered for a period at Saints Olivette Ice Skating Rink, 1168 N. Warson Rd., Saint Louis, MO 63132. In 1975, the club found a new home at the newly built Brentwood Ice Arena, 2505 S. Brentwood Blvd., Brentwood, MO 63144. Board officers
