Monday Seniors League
This year we’re keeping the Seniors League on Mondays 1:30 to 3:30 but handling registrations slightly differently. Registration for this program will open on Monday Sept 26th by calling the manager at 867-873-4805. This is a separate program that is currently being funded by the federal grant- New Horizons for Seniors to help encourage physical and social activities for seniors. Curlers ages 55+ are encouraged to come to the Open house on October 17th at 1pm to register at no cost, get out on the ice and socialize after in the lounge. If you’ve never stepped on the ice before but would like to try, all are welcome. If you are not able to get on the ice but still would like to watch and cheer on your fellow seniors please join us!
*If you would like to join another league in addition to this one the individual membership fee will still need to be paid.
