It is widely understood that physical activity and social connection are essential for both individual and community well-being. Yet, accessible and inclusive winter sport that brings people together remain scarce. As we recover from years of isolation and division, the need for welcoming spaces that bridge generational and social gaps has never been more pressing.
The Traverse City Curling Club is a solution: we’re here to bring people of all ages and abilities together, offering a welcoming space to stay active, make friends, and enjoy the unique sport of curling. The sport’s accessibility draws people from diverse backgrounds, professions, and viewpoints in a setting that’s neutral and community-focused—where there is no "type" of curler, just community.
We also know curling is more than a game; it’s a culture of camaraderie and belonging. Traditions like broomstacking bring teammates and opponents together after each game to share conversation and connect. Our club thrives on volunteering and contributions to the greater good, embodying the spirit of curling that strengthens both our mission and our community.
We are committed to keeping curling accessible to all. This means our membership fees are intentionally low—lower, in fact, than the actual cost of operations. To bridge the gap, we rely on the generous support of our community, in time, talent, and resources. Every contribution helps make curling possible for everyone.
