Our new season of curling will start soon. We are hoping to get the ice in and ready to go by Nov. 1st with leagues starting on Nov. 6th for Day and Nov. 7th for Night League. No date is set yet for Juniors. Once the coaching staff is in place a notice will go out to the parents and the school.
Junior Curling 2016/17
This years Junior program is off and running. To date we have 15 registered and a new coach in Teagan Lombardo, a former Junior curler out of our club. Teagan has asked if there are any parent volunteers that could help her out from time to time. The Junior day of curling this season is on Saturday’s from 1pm until 3pm. We are also on the lookout for inter-club Junior games for some of our more experienced Junior players especially on the Saturday’s that our club needs for bonspiels. Here is a pic from last Saturday’s session with some of our Juniors in attendance.

Our Adult/Junior bonspiel was held today Mar. 25th at the club with about 8 of our Juniors plus their coach Teagan and 7 parents that formed four teams. They played a 3 end game and then took a break for pictures and gifts were presetned to Ray Bates and coach Teagan Lombardo (Happy Birthday girl). After break they switched it up and played another 3 ends. Then it was time for pizza from Big G’s Pizza. The pizza was provided by AA Munroe, Cross Roads Electrical and Big G’s.
