April 5, 2008 -- No Curling April 6th!!

Chaparral Ice still isn't ready for us!  They are not ready for us to move our rocks to the new rink yet.  Hopefully, this will happen sometime this next week and we'll be back on the ice soon. 

The Texas Open Bonspiel in Dallas is the weekend of April 12-13, and many of our club members will be participating. This means our first day of curling on the new rink will be Sunday April 20th at the usual time. Don't miss this date to come out and see the new rink with REAL HOUSES, HOG LINES, T-LINES and even CENTER LINES.

Please note that the membership meeting scheduled to follow curling April 6th will be rescheduled.  Stay tuned to the website and email for more updates on when we'll be back on the ice!

March 29, 2008 -- Photos of the New Rink

We have some great pictures of Dennis, Bill, Wayne and Ramona laying the houses and lines in the new rink.  We also have some fantastic shots of the finished product.  Check out our Photo Gallery for these pictures. 

A special thanks to Wayne and Alex for taking and sharing these pictures.

March 27, 2008 -- No Curling March 30th!!

We have just received word from Chaparral Ice that the new ice rink will not be ready by this Sunday (March 30). The Chaparral Website at http://www.chaparralice.com/ states they are now on track to open the doors for business on Monday at 6:30 pm.

This means our first day of curling on the new rink will be Sunday April 6th at the usual time. Don't miss this date to come out and see the new rink with REAL HOUSES, HOG LINES, T-LINES and even CENTER LINES. A big thank you to Dennis, Bill, Wayne and Ramona for all their hard work this week helping to put down the houses and lines. I've heard it looks GREAT!

For those of you who don't know......the new facility is still in the Northcross complex over where the Beall's store use to be. Chaparral Ice has offered the use of their fork lift to help move the rocks to the new rink. We are expecting that to happen next Wednesday or Thursday. We may put out a call for helpers when the time arrives, so be prepared to tote some 42 lb. rocks!

We're almost there!!

Stay tuned.

Feb. 11, 2008 -- Important Club Announcements!

On February 16 (Saturday night) you are invited to come out and curl at the Northcross Mall Ice Rink from 10:30pm until midnight. A private birthday party will occupy 2 sheets. The other 2 sheets will be open curling with a $15 ice fee. We will also need volunteers to help with ice prep and instruction for that night. Please come out and join us for some nighttime curling fun.

On February 17 (Sunday morning) league curling will start one hour earlier (at 9am). Chaparral Ice has asked us to start earlier for this one session due to hockey playoffs at the rink.

Also, we are now taking nominations for Board positions. Nominations should be submitted to Membership Director Pat Popovich by March 2 and elections will be held at the next membership meeting on March 30.
