Tuesday Open Curling Night
Date: March 14, 2023
Time: 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Location: Cook County Curling Club
Event Description
The Cook County Curling Club invites you to come and try curling! Every Tuesday at 6:30 pm is Open Curling Night, with members of our local club available to help new curlers on the ice. All skill levels welcome!
The first couple sessions are free for prospective new members looking to test drive the sport; all you need to bring is a clean pair of shoes. After that, if the spark turns to a flame, you must buy a membership.
If interested in joining this group, just show up at the club during this time slot and introduce yourself, or contact Dave Jansen at drjansengm@gmail.com.
The Spirit of Curling
Curling is a game of skill and of traditions. A shot well executed is a delight to see and so, too, it is a fine thing to observe the time-honored traditions of curling being applied in the true spirit of the game. Curlers play to win but never to humble their opponents. A true curler would prefer to lose rather than win unfairly.
A good curler never attempts to distract an opponent or otherwise prevent him/her from playing his/her best.
No curler ever deliberately breaks a rule of the game or any of its traditions. But, if he/she should do so inadvertently and be aware of it, he/she is the first to divulge the breach.
While the main object to the game of curling is to determine the relative skills of the players, the spirit of the game demands good sportsmanship, kindly feeling and honorable conduct. This spirit should influence both the interpretation and application of the rules of the game and also the conduct of all participants on and off the ice.
