Wissahickon Skating Club

[7] This club was organized in 1954 as a community improvement measure and for the purpose of supporting amateur and professional athletes who were eligible to participate in ice hockey and figure skating competitions.

Several of the club's members have competed and placed in the United States Figure Skating Association's (USFSA) South Atlantic, Eastern and National Competitions, and Scott Cramer, a two-time silver medalist in the U.S.

[17] Throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, the club produced many elite players, a number of whom advanced to prominent boarding schools and NCAA Division 1 hockey programs.

One of the program's best-known alumni is two-time Olympian and New York Rangers Stanley Cup Champion goaltender, Mike Richter.

[20] During the early 1990s, WSC became a member of the Delaware Valley Hockey League and has since represented the DVHL and the Atlantic District at local and national championships.

For the past fifty-three years, WSC and The Merritton Athletic Association of St. Catharines, Ontario have operated a Peewee and Bantam level exchange tournament (alternating as hosts).
