USCA Promotional Videos

With the Winter Olympics right around the corner the USCA (United States Curling Association) has created several videos in order to promote the sport of curling. Take a look at these videos:

Frigid Digit 2010 - What a BLAST!!!

The second annual Frigid Digit Bonspiel was a blast! The theme this year was based on countries in the Olympics. Sixteen internal teams competed in the event leading up to three finals on Sunday - Gold, Silver and Bronze. Each team that participated in the bonspiel was given a country to represent. Teams were awarded additional points for things like drawing the country's flag, singing the country's national anthem and dressing up like natives from that country.

Everyone that attended had a blast and as you can tell from the photo gallery many people got into the theme of the event. Check out the photo gallery here.

Friday Night Curling - Bring a Friend Night

Columbus Curling Club members - do you have a friend that wants to come out and try curling? Then Friday night is the night for them. You can bring a friend or two or three, heck bring as many as you want to the new Friday Night Bring a Friend Night. The fun starts at 7:00 PM every Friday night during the season (except when there is a bonspiel going on that weekend). The cost is $10 per friend that you bring to the club.

This will give you an opportunity to get your friends out on the ice and teach them about the sport of curling. Roughly the first 30 minutes of the night will be dedicated to instructing the new comers and after that we will divide up and play a 6 end game. Afterward we will head into the warmroom and have a couple of drinks and talk about all the fun we had on the ice.

Don't have a friend that is a member of the club but still want to come out and see what curling is all about? Stop on by for one of our clinics or send the club an email and let us know what Friday you are interested in and how many of you there will be.

Press Release

While curling has a history of popularity in Canada and the upper Midwest, the 2002 Olympics, brought curling to a wider American audience. Columbus Curling Club experienced a period of rapid growth after the last Olympiad. The club is now home to curlers of all levels of experience and all walks of life, including Canadian expats, the OSU Club Curling Team, and even local artist Jim Maneri.

Third Sheet Added

With a successful first year under our belts CCC has added a third sheet of ice in our dedicated curling facility. All the funds to add this third sheet were raised through donations of current members of CCC.

By adding a third sheet to our facility we have increased the number of people that can be curling at one time from 16 to 24. This will also allow us to host more teams at the bonspiels that we have throughout the year.

The CCC members stepped-up and installed the third sheet just prior to the beginning of the 2009-2010 curling season. Thanks to all the members who volunteered numerous hours to construct this third sheet of ice.
