Also the ice plant is still down and a technician is coming by tomorrow Nov. 9th to check it out. The brine pipes are fixed but the plant is still not working. If all goes well tomorrow the flooding can start. As in past years it takes at least 2 weeks to get the ice in and ready. So there is no firm date as to when the leagues will start. An Open House will occur the Wednesday before the league gets going plus a weekend of practice ice. Still looking for new players.

Attached are the registration sheet and public poster for junior curling. The Junior’s registration night is being planned for November 8, 6:30 PM until 8:00 PM.

It is always encouraging to have new and returning juniors. If you know of someone whom you believe would like to have some inexpensive fun and friendly competition, please spread the word that all are welcome within the age group as established by the Canadian Curling Association.

If you also are aware of any family who might have an issue with the registration fee, the MODG recreation will provide assistance once they have been contacted.

Best regards,

Ray Bates

PS Ice may or may not be ready at that time….

Registration Juniors 2017 – 2018

Here is a poster for Junior Curling registration. As we did last year the Juniors will be on the ice on Saturdays from 1-3pm. If the numbers warrant it we may also try Wednesday’s after school. Here is the poster for registration:

With the curling rink’s ongoing construction (stop by and peek), the hope is to have our curling season tentatively starting  on Monday, November 13. Neil is contacting folks regarding day curling and Phil is overseeing the night curling. Teagan Lombardo is overseeing the Juniors with assistance from me and Phil. It would save them time if you would reach out and confirm, or not, your return.

We hope that all will be returning for another season of curling with new participants joining us. If you know of anyone please contact him/her and put in a plug for them to join. Pass along prospective members’ names /  contact information to Neil, Phil, or Teagan, depending on the league. Their emails are copied so you can reach out and notify them of prospective curlers.

At last Thursday’s general meeting, resulting from a motion from the floor, it was overwhelming passed that dues will increase in all categories by 10%. The now-former-dues included the 15% HST as well as our annual fee to the Nova Scotia Curling Association (NSCA).

The total dues, which will also include HST and NSCA fees, for our

2017-2018 season are as follows (http://www.chedabuctocc.ca/registration-for-the-2016_2017-season):

Day League/Night League (one dues covers both): $255.00

Juniors: $50.00

Social: $30.00

Family, residing in the same residence: $510.00

Looking forward to seek all back at the renovated and expanded curling rink. 🙂

The Chedabucto CC’s Semi-AGM will be held Thursday, October 12, in the curling rink at 6:30 PM.

The two main items for discussions are an update (and viewing) regarding the Club’s expansion/renovations and the recommended dues for the 2017 – 2018 curling year.

I have been asked if guests are permitted to attend; the answer is “yes”; all guests are welcome but any voting is for full members only.

Cheers 🙂
