Lincoln Center Skate Club (LCSC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and developing the sport of figure skating in Columbus, Indiana and surrounding areas. LCSC aims to encourage an environment of good sportsmanship while striving to provide training opportunities to meet the needs of all levels of skaters.
