Saturday Banquet
Our Saturday banquet will be serving up pretty much everything a hungry curler needs for those peel-weight takeouts! Not playing in the bonspiel? That's okay, you can still join the banquet. We have a limited number of banquet tickets available for purchase.

Sponsor the Double Takeout Prize
Take out this sponsorship and dub every double takeout during one draw.
How it works: any time a team makes a double takeout during the draw you sponsor, a marker featuring your sponsorship will move to that sheet's scoreboard. The last team to claim the marker will win a round of drinks and toast to their sponsor!
Sponsor the Double Takeout Prize for just $50 a draw. Please submit an 8X10 logo, image, or picture of your choosing for the marker. Will it be your pet, lucky charm, club logo, or business? We love it all! (Just please keep it PG-13, thank you.)
