Please take a look around the website as you will find invaluable information regarding our club. Phase I of our building project is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2009. There will be an extension of the warm room and handicap access ramps added. Check out our building gallery to see pictures and keep tabs on our progress.
Individuals wishing to visit our club are encouraged to call the club, or send an e-mail and ask about scheduling a visit. We do not have open curling available as almost all the available ice time is booked with club competition or training. We have an open house in October and January; interested members can apply for membership at that time. You can find the dates and times of the open houses on our calendar. Free training is provided for the two weeks or so before the league competition begins.
We are affiliated with the Grand National Curling Club of America (GNCC), a confederation of 36 curling clubs in the northeastern United States, and the United States Curling Association (USCA), the national coordinating organization. The ACC (and each individual member) is a member of GNCC and the USCA. These groups sponsor competitions at the regional, national, international and Olympic levels.
