Patricia Fortunato, a member of the Summerland Skating Club, became a triple gold skater on Feb. 24.

Earning her gold skills on test day at the Sunbowl Skating Club in Osoyoos, Fortunato is well on her way to being a top competitor in the local figure skating circuit. Her achievement is even more impressive since her decision to enter the testing that day was last-minute.
