WASILLA — Jada Bowers may have been The Littlest Angel, but her performance drew some big applause.

Bowers was among 30-some local skaters who performed in the first Holiday Ice Fantasia show Saturday at the Curtis D. Menard Memorial Sports Center. A showcase for the center’s Learn To Skate program, the holiday show culminated more than two months of training and rehearsal, said Natasha Bowers, Jada’s mother and skating director for the rink.

“This is the first Christmas show ever done at the sports complex,” she said. “Our Learn To Skate program is kind of the foundation for the show, and we have skaters from all over the Valley joining in.”
