TEAM BUILDING • ALL AGES & ABILITIES • OLYMPIC EXPERIENCE
“Thank you for helping to make our event so great! Everything went off without a hitch! Our team was a little hesitant about curling when we surprised them with the task, but by the end there was a lot of talk about coming back or forming a team! It also added a lot of positive energy to the seminar!”~ Rachel, Lakewinds Food Co-Op
“A HUGE thank you for all of your efforts for making our sales meeting/event a huge success. Everyone had a wonderful time and couldn’t have asked for better instructors and service in the restaurant and throughout the entire facility. I know you will be seeing some our employees again as they are curling converts. I would recommend you to anyone seeking a unique event and from a planning standpoint, everything is right there within walking distance, so it is very nice.” ~ Gioia S, NaviLogic

More Information
Group size can range from 4 to 48 participants. Have a large group? We can get two groups of 48 in the same 2 hour block. All 96 would receive the off-ice curling talk and then the first group would hit the ice for about an hour and then the groups would switch and the second group of 48 would take to the ice. Contact the Curling Center for pricing. Many groups will rent the EVENT CENTER and use it for catering or meeting space. This allows a nice break/split sessions- everyone is staying engaged in something, whether curling, meeting, or eating!
Curling is played 4 against 4. Games can be modified if you have a team of 3 (or even 5). To save time, have your teams or tournaments set prior to arriving. Typically one team will play another team for the entire duration and you will get about 5 or 6 ends in (each end, like an inning in baseball, takes about 15-20 minutes). If you are running a tournament or want to play different opponents, note that a “game” will probably be one or two ends.
Slips and falls, although very rare, can happen. Wearing dress shoes increases the risk of a fall. We stress the importance of carrying in clean athletic shoes. This helps keep our ice clean and you safe.
Participants must sign a waiver form prior to stepping on the ice.
Dress for Your Curling Event
- Bring along a clean pair of clean-on-the-bottom athletic shoes. Carry them in, do not wear them in. It is extremely important to keep the ice clean. No leather soled shoes or metal lace hooks.
- Dress comfortably. Jeans are difficult – wear loose fitting/stretchy clothes as you will be in lunge positions.
- The curling arena is about 40°F. Consider a hat, gloves and a warm jacket or hoodie.
