Jitneys
Jitneys are social evenings held on selected Saturday nights in the new year. This is curling strictly for fun. Put a team together ... bring your friends, family, new curlers, anyone. Sign up, come out and have a great time. The cost is $180 per sheet of ice ($22.50 per person). That includes curling, snacks and a DJ. Ice times of 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm are available. Plan to come a little early to get your group ready for going on the ice.
Facilities
The Tam Heather club is available for private rentals. Both the upper and lower lounges may be booked for special events such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, meetings or dances.
New to Curling?
Thinking of trying the sport of curling?
Curling is a unique sport that requires both skill and strategy. It is often referred to as chess on ice. It is a lifelong sport that can be learned at any age. Whether playing in a fun league or in a competitive ladder the emphasis is always on sportsmanship and fair play. Being a social sport by nature, it is not uncommon for teams to socialize off the ice where lasting friendships are often made.
