Hello Curlers,

 

As we plan to reopen the club for leagues this coming Sunday (Jan. 24) we have a few updates to share with you.

 

Leauge Rule Updates:

1. Leauge rules will call for only one sweeper for a 4 member team.

2. Leagues will only play 6 end games to allow for safer play, more time to disinfect the ice, and give players more time to get on and off the ice between games. 

3. We suggest that the player not sweeping help out the bar by being "bottle skip." This person can help get the drinks for the team. 

 

Board Elections:

The General Board and Women's Board elections will be held again via survey. Please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you are interested in running. 

Thank you in advance for serving your club. 

 

Good curling,

 

DCC

Hello Members,

The outside door from the DECC will be locked on Fridays and Saturdays until we are able to get a card access system installed. We hope to get this taken care of soon, but until then, there is no available practice time on Fridays or Saturdays.  

We apologize for the inconvenience but we hope to get this rectified as soon as possible. 

- DCC

Members,
 
Please read the rules and protocols for curling that are posted all around the club.
 
In short, curlers must wear a mask that covers their nose and mouth at all times when on the ice. No exceptions. They must socially space as much as possible. Teams waiting to get on the ice after one league is finishing must not come on the ice until the other teams are off their sheet. Teams should also be wiping down their rocks before and after each game.
 
If teams can not adhere to the mask rule, they are subject to forfeiture of their game. Continued nonadherence will result in that team's disqualification from the league.
 
If players continue to disregard these rules, it will just be a matter of time before we see a COVID positive case or an outbreak, which will close our club for at least 2 weeks.
 
If you see something, say something, or report it to the office.
 
Thank you,
DCC

This year's parking passes are available to be purchased. Passes are $65. Please stop into the DCC office to purchase yours.  If you have any questions, please contact Dick at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 

 

Hello Curlers, 

The 2020-21 season is about to begin and we have some news we want to share with you.

First, the curling club office will be open Monday, October 19 - Wednesday, October 21 from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. 

Starting Thursday, October 22 the office will be open from 3:00 pm until 15 minutes after the last league starts. 

Please plan accordingly to come in and pay dues etc. 

Second, new parking passes will be delivered by the DECC to the office soon.  We will not be accepting prepayment for these passes so you'll have to pay when you pick them up. 

Lastly, the only access to the club this season will be through Door A under the skywalk.  THERE WILL BE NO ENTRANCE OR EXIT THROUGH THE SKYWALK.  Door A will be unlocked at 10:00 am daily after the ice is prepped and ready to go. The building must be vacated when the lounge closes for the night and the building will be locked until the following morning. Further details will be shared with DCC members if details change.

Greetings Curlers!

 

The Board of Directors for the Duluth Curling Club have voted to open for the 2020-21 season.

The decison to open was made with the health and safety of our members at the forefront.  Our protocol 

committee is hard at work preparing guidelines for play during the COVID-19 pandemic.  We will

rely on the advice of the CDC, the MDH and the USCA for this unusual year and hopefully none of us

will have to go through this again in our lifetimes.

For more information in the coming days, check the DCC Facebook page, your emails and the DCC website.


 

 

Good Curling!
