Founded in 2014, Our Club now includes more than 150 members curling four times on three days per week, and hosting one of the premier Bonspiels in the Great Lakes Curling Association. We have hosted two Olympic Gold Medalists and supported our members curling in bonspiels and friendly events across the nation, all while being powered exclusively by volunteer leadership. Through the sport of curling, our club is a community within our community, and we invite you to join us – as a curler, a volunteer, a spectator, and supporter.
