The order for our new Crush shirts has closed as of August 1st. We bought extras so a few will be available at check-in.
Wine Country Curling Club members, now that the draw is out, please consider signing up for a few shifts here and there to help us out! Many hands make light work! We need photographers, bonspielers, donators, scoreboard changers, basketers, ticket sellers. Lots and lots and lots of stuff go into making a bonspiel successful and every little bit helps.
